Having taken six flights since Sunday, I think it’s pretty inevitable to arrive home with some kind of airborne illness.
And so I greet the weekend - the hottest of the year so far in London - with the mother of all head colds. I don’t want to get on another plane for quite some time. But the damage is done for now.
Not helping this is being woken up by the smell of burning rubber at 6am this morning - I’ve no idea where it was coming from. Definitely outside on the street. My apartment wasn’t on fire, thankfully. But now I’m wide awake, sipping a coffee and planning to head to my office for a couple of hours of filming while it’s nice and quiet.
The YouTube engine stops for no man.
Let’s hope the rest of the weekend improves from here…

Back to my hotel and in bed before midnight.
In case I turn into a pumpkin! Also, reminding myself this break is supposed to be a retreat and a focus on my well-being, not a party (that was back in June, at Pride). So it’s time for sleep and tuning several shades browner overnight.

One more hour of work and then I can head home to collapse. Awake from 2am onwards overnight, due to my old friend insomnia. To say today was an effort would be an understatement.

Insomnia update.
I ended up awake from about 12:30am to some time after 4:00am and boy am I feeling it now.
Thankfully, no work today. Just a birthday brunch with my mum and later, my flight back to London.
Today will be brought to you by caffeine and resilience.
