Burning Needs

I've had an intense and stressful two weeks with 16 hour work days. And all I can think about now and what I desparately need is to get dressed up, go out in public and relax with a drink in a nice cocktail lounge with an interesting crowd.

Don't you find that? That burning need to dress and go out en femme...occupying all your thoughts.

Unfortunately I've got so much work to get through over the next 10 days that there will be no time whatsoever to get dressed and go out.

About ten days ago I spent three days struggling with a complex conceptual problem (something similar to a complex mathematical problem) and I was getting absolutely nowhere...tackled it from every angle, but just couldn't find the answer. Then I went out en femme in Canberra with a friend and had a wonderful wonderful evening. The next morning I walked into the office and within 30 minutes I'd solved the problem.

How's that for achieving total focus and clear thinking as a result of the peace and contentment that descends on me after a evening out as Dee. I guess it's the only time that my mind feels totally holistic and where all my energy and psychy comes together in peace, clarity, happiness and focus.
