The relapse's back. When I thought it has been in remission or even possibly a complete cure, out of a sudden, the relapse's back today.
Since my sophomore years of college I was diagnosed with Saturday Syndrome. Whenever it aprroached late morning/midday every Saturdays, the symptoms would develop starting of with blurry vision, the head felt heavier and heavier, within minutes I would feel dopey and then the soporific effect would be more drastic if I tried to focus on getting my prac reports done for my lab classes at that time. Within the next half hour, the will power of trying to be a diligent student would be virtually wiped out and I would end up in a 2-3 hour comatose.
That's right, as long as I stayed at home at those hours, the symptoms would develop. But ever since I left college, I didn't have much luxury of having free time lazing at home during those hours on each Saturdays. As such, the syndrome had never recurred!
But it came back again today! I was making an effort to go into the lab to speed up my work today, since I do have a few deadlines coming up real soon. I was well awake at 7am. Seeing the fact that it's still early, so I decided to check out my daily reads for at least another 2 more hours before I get some serious work done. But hey, guess what happened? The comfy bed lulled me to sleep. I slept through most of the day. So, this naughty gal didn't get any proper work done at all, not even cleaning the apartment! Geez, blame the evil Saturday Syndrome!
It's ok....at least I had a restful day and I'm really gearing myself up to work tomorrow. I think
no matter how tight the work schedule is, we have to try to allocate one day out of the week to veg out. Sleep is definitely the best detoxification therapy for me. Okie dokie, the therapy has to resume now.
