OK, I swear I've used that subject before, but I don't care.
Anyway, I'm in Seattle right now, drove straight to the airport from working in the Oaks. I'm pooped! But I'm so happy that my laptop has 7 hours of battery power, compared to the 2 my other laptop had. So I was able to work on my picture galleries and listen to some tunes while my flight was delayed.
But I am so tired of work. It has definitely played a part in the funk that I'm still in. It's not too bad, but I'm just so tired and spent with everything that's been going on. You know, since I came back to Long Beach after my mom's funeral, I've seen Dave an average of twice a week? With me staying up in the Oaks and his schedule at the hospital, we never see each other.
Things have been pretty tough for me lately, especially since I've been working far from home, and I don't know anyone at the company I'm consulting at. With the holidays coming up, it's been doubly hard. I change the station when I hear Christmas songs come on. I almost don't want Christmas to come, because it will just be another reminder.
And I have done ZERO Christmas shopping. And it will be HELL to do it in Chicago. I might have to throw down like I did last year when I got my parking spot stolen. OK. I didn't throw down. I gave a dirty look. But if Fata or Mel was there, heads woulda rolled!
So I sit here in my comfy hotel in Seattle, not being able to sleep, which has the regular theme for the past couple weeks. The only time I get some good sleep is when Dave is around.
So I'm off to go an lie in my super plushy hotel bed to stare at the ceiling and count hippos to help me sleep. Wish me luck!
