today's accomplishments

I entered new multitasking territory when I did voice exercises while I read The Nation. To my surprise, I didn't lose either my breath or my mental concentration.

I'm still up, at almost 9pm, and only mildly sleepy. Which means the jetlag is lifting - yaay! In the past 3 days since I got back to the US, I've been hit by a wave of exhaustion at 6pm each evening. Last night, I gave in and went to bed at 6.30 - and then was up at 1am this morning.

Oh, and I wrote a 1000-word article on my Nairobi show for Pambazuka News. And recorded some voiceover samples for a SustainLane animation series, created by my friend Byron.

Funny - 10 minutes ago, I was beating myself up over everything I didn't get done today. I began this blog posting to laugh at my trivial achievements, in the absence of substantial ones. Now, I read it and think: Umm, actually, that's not a bad day's work.
