A very Mondayish Monday

white_hartAbout the best I can say about today is that I got a bit more done than I would have done if I'd stayed in bed, which, given the combined effects of crashing depression and an awful night's sleep, I was quite tempted to do. I did at least remember about Spotify halfway through the morning and stuck the Brandenburg Concertos on in the background as a way of distracting my brain from going round and round in depressive circles.
Despite not really feeling up to socialising I did manage to have a very pleasant lunch with my old tutor from Warwick in the early 90s, who has fetched up as a Senior Research Fellow of Campion Hall and member of my current Faculty, and his wife who is also a Senior Research Fellow of Campion Hall (the first woman to have been granted that honour), and took advantage of it being the vacation to take a long enough break to have a full tour of Campion and its art collections. Just down the road, I also spotted the blue plaque on the house where Dorothy L Sayers was born, which I hadn't seen before (Brewer Street is not a road I walk down very often).
(What do people use to post images to DW these days? I can't use my Flickr account unless I pay them £50 a year, which I'm not planning to do, and I can't see how to make Instagram divulge the image location while the embed code doesn't actually embed anything.)
