I think my body is getting too habituated to stimulation to whip myself into motivation (which comes erratically) - had a second coffee today and went to the office to try and get something done. 4 hours later of desperately scrabbling around for some kind of dopamine... Nothing. I gave up at that point but I've been feeling phenomenally tired all afternoon despite a solid 10 hours of sleep last night. How and when to turn on the switch?! Urgh. Doing work over the weekend seemed so possible on Friday but it was not to be.

Gonna make some prawn stock with these tiger prawns I bought, add some of it (and prawn meat) to this pre-made laksa, keep the rest of the stock for a pilaf maybe.
