Mission Impossible (Day 17)

   "Your mission, Reader, should you choose to accept it, is to spend no more than 32 "spoons" in one, 24 hour period, and accomplish as many of the outlined tasks, including all 5 bold tasks for a successful mission. 
   "As ever, remember that a "spoon" is simply a unit of energy that it takes to complete a task.  Each line of the list of tasks below will use one spoon today. On other days it might either take more than one spoon per line, or you might be able to do an entire task with only one spoon.  
   "If you use more than 32 spoons your mission will abort and your only chance for survival is to go to bed. Although some days it is possible to "borrow" spoons from the next day, there are two problems with that. One is that you run the risk of crashing mid-task and losing all escape-to-bed options, but rather wind up in the ER. The other is that we might have another, more difficult mission for you in the immediate future, and you would be at a disadvantage by having even fewer spoons than you originally would have been allotted for that day. 
   "Today you are a level 6 migraine, on the usual pain scale of 1 - 10. This is a "good" day for you, where you might be able to accomplish some of the basic tasks outlined below. 
    "This message will self-destruct, but we hope you will not."
