In office today and only member of my entire team. I’m surrounded by people I don’t know but starting to hate.
Due to 6 or 7 coffees yesterday of which I lost count I’m totally wrecked today.
And my package was delayed today and won’t arrive until tomorrow.
Switched my sleep back to 6am wake up. Feel utterly fucked.
