The curious properties of time

It has been a busy two weeks for me, with plenty to do as we make some changes in the company.  I’ve found that the holiday break right before it feels such a distant memory because of all that has occupied my time since.  Time seems to be going by slowly as I plow away, yet it seems to go by faster than I realize.  I was so out of it I thought it was Tuesday for a brief time today.  It’s really strange how time can be so fast and so slow at the same time.

At times while working, I’d look at the time and be surprised that it wasn’t later in the day.  It was a good thing, because it meant things weren’t taking as long as I felt they were, but it was also very tiring.  At the same time, looking back on the past few hours, it was hard to remember what I had been doing.  I’ve just been working working working on so much stuff that it all started to blend in to each other.  Had I already looked at this?  Did I already edit that?  Thank goodness for my spreadsheet, or else everything would have taken twice as long as I forgot if I had done it yet or not.

Somehow looking back on this week, I can’t quite discern that there were five days.  In fact, it’s almost incomprehensible at this point that that many days went by when it only felt like two or three.  It’s nice that the week is over, but there’s still quite a bit of work to be done!  I did finish the most important set of tasks and that’s a relief.  However, I do still have a report to compile, which I didn’t have time to do last week either.  Yikes!

I need to let my brain refresh a bit though, so I think I will do that on Sunday after I’ve recovered some of my mental capacity.  Sleep is so not overrated.
