TURTLE

Reason #321 Why You Should Work Ahead of Time

Sometimes the unforeseen really does happen and you get sick. I’m positive that I should be really stressed about my behind-ness on all my papers right now, but turtle syndrome has hit me.

Turtle syndrome: Feeling really slow. Doesn’t seem to be much going on between your ears, if anything at all. Working at half the usual pace or less.

Mildly upset that this happens now when I really need all my energy to do my best possible work, but more tired and cotton-woolly. Sigh. Nothing I can do except do what I can, although I’m afraid it won’t be great.

Would really like to know what is wrong with me. Do not have the usual fever and illness so do not know how to get better quickly. Very, very tired. But do not think is flu. Have also never had real flu before.

P.S. To all turtles out there, I apologise. You are not really slow and cotton-woolly, I know.
