I would really rather be snoozing right now than doing what I'm doing. It's not that I'm having a bad day or anything, I just could have used some extra sleep this morning. When we're having a few days of cold weather like we're having right now, it's tough to make yourself (at least I think it's tough) get out of a cosy warm bed.
Of course, usually, once my feet hit the floor, it's over and I just get on with my day. Today though, for some reason, I am in a foggy funk of some sort and keep thinking about how nice it would be crawl back under the comforter. Alas, I'm in the office, just finishing eating my lunch, plowing through my to-do list.
Boring stuff huh?? Well prepared to be excited, Red Dwarf is back!! Exciting stuff huh? Apparently they are doing an easter special. If you haven't seen Red Dwarf (but you watch Corrie), it's the show that our Lloyd was on before he was on the Street. Anyway, Mark is bound to be excited because it's going to be on just before his birthday. Talk about an awesome early birthday gift and it won't cost me a penny!!

andy and sam
Right now, I'm waiting for the office mover guys to arrive. My colleagues have finished their packing and have moved up to the "castle" as we call it (the central office). There are a lot of changes going on in our organization right now. The changes feel really good and they are the kinds of things that a person can get excited about. It is so nice to be participating in planning exercises that are actually moving forward and to be working in an amazingly supportive environment. Moving into this job was really one of the smartest moves I've made in a really long time!
Last night, I suggested to Mark that this weekend, we do much napping. Napping and doing nothing. I just want to veg out and do as little as I can get away with.
I don't feel well rested right now, I haven't all week actually. Neither of us has slept well and I am going to blame the weather but I think that we're still getting over feeling shitty last week. Apparently, the other night I was dreaming and I was talking and wimpering in my sleep. At one point, I grabbed onto Mark's arm and woke him up. I have no recollection of this but I have a vague rememberance of some strange dreams.
Hopefully, getting rested up and watching season 2 of my new favourite show (Kathy Griffin's "my life on the d-list") will allow me to recharge my batteries and stop crying in my sleep!!

steam release
"good news everybody!" No, Professor Farnsworth isn't making a proclamation, Mark passed a kidney stone this morning. He felt like totally shitty shit (not just regular shit) all weekend and this morning, finally, he passed his stone.
He was told a couple of weeks ago that he had 3 of them (at least three that were visible on an ultrasound) but they didn't really start to give him any problem until this weekend. Yesterday was particularly bad. Fortunately, taking it easy and drinking a tonne of mineral water seemed to have helped and he's in much better spirits tonight. His colour has returned, he just looks so much happier.
I had an okay Monday. We didn't sleep much last night because city workers were in the neighbourhood somewhere. We could hear their trucks and see flashing blue lights but I'm not sure what they were doing. I just know that they woke both of us up, woke the dog up and most of the neighbours, between 2 and 5 a.m. The poor dog was so frightened that she slept in the master bathroom (off of our room) all night.
Not fun. I dragged my butt a bit and am hoping to get to sleep early-ish tonight. I can't tell whether my cold is coming back or I'm just sleep deprived but at the moment, my head feels very very heavy.

icy
For whatever reason, I woke up much earlier this morning than I would have liked to. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, I do have a bunch of stuff to get done this morning, all the same, I'm not sure that I feel entirely rested. Until I'm actually in the van and heading west, I think I'll feel a little uneasy. I usually do and sometimes wish I didn't.
Last night, I did manage to get all of my laundry done and sort out some of the stuff I needed to get ready for today. I know that today will go by quickly and hopefully I'll have easy access to coffee for a good chunk of it. At the moment, I'm just feeling like I'll need it.

heater
Mark and I both worked a little bit late tonight. I sort of wish I hadn't but it was one of those unavoidable things.
Today, I've felt as if I'm fighting a cold. This has been going on for weeks now and I can't tell if it's a cold or allergies. It's annoying for sure and I really wish it wasn't happening. I'm trying to get enough rest and stuff. Honestly, I know that I'm a little run down after the past several weeks.
Tonight, after dinner, I actually fell asleep for a few minutes during Coronation Street. This never happens. Never ever.
With any kind of luck at all, I'll be having a little bit of a long weekend this weekend. I really hope it works out, I feel like I could use some naps.

see you all on monday
I'm functioning on very little sleep right now.
On Saturday night, I could not shut my brain off to sleep. I got a couple of hours yesterday during the day but again, last night, I couldn't settle. Finally, at 3 a.m., I got up and watched some tv for an hour or so. Eventually at 4 a.m. I went back to sleep but I had to be up an hour later or that kind of sucked.
Everyone was dragging their asses around today. It's bittersweet, this feeling of having accomplished something but not having the time to enjoy how that feels. We just have to jump into the next thing and can't take much time to reflect.
Oh well, onwards and upwards, right?
Hopefully, if I'm lucky, I'll sleep tonight. I'd really like that, a lot!

finally home
I am home.
I am tired but not in a puddle on the floor. puddles on the floor are not good things.
As exhausted as I am, I don't think that I could sleep at the moment if I wanted to (which I do).
It's good to be finished work for the week. finally.

too much of a good thing
My nap turned into a coma.
I woke up about an hour ago.
It's the middle of the night (sort of) and I'm watching decorating shows.
yikes.
I can't imagine that I'll make it through the whole of today without some other kind of nap or snooze or rest.
My internal clock is completely turned around. It's weird but I don't feel too horrible, just a little groggy and disoriented. We both missed dinner last night too. I hope Mark is feeling okay when he gets up.
Man, this is weird. I actually slept for 10 hours, in a row.

day flight
How's your week going?
Mine is flying by in an blur. Seriously.
I'm working on a big event for tomorrow night. The parts of that I'm responsible for are starting to come together and I know that I'm really organized. Unfortunately, on some level, my brain thinks that I'm going to mess it all up. This part of my brain kept waking me up last night.
Hopefully it won't do that again tonight. I could really use the sleep.
I'll be so happy when Friday morning arrives. You have no idea.

groggy
For some reason, last night and Sunday night, I didn't sleep well. About once every hour or so, I'd wake up, look at the clock, and then take about 15 minutes to fall back to sleep. It also seemed to take me a really long time to fall asleep.
I'm sleepy, and tired. I think that maybe some noisy neighbour or critter is waking me up, banging around out in the neighbourhood.
it's odd. ordinarily, I'm a very good sleeper. I close my eyes, I fall asleep, I don't fall out of bed too often. it's all very orderly.
I hate not sleeping well. It makes me feel tired and today, for a few moments this afternoon, I thought I might be getting another cold. I hope it was just overtiredness because I really don't want another cold.
I also don't particularly wanna watch the Idols sing "new country" tonight but you know I will. Mark does not share my enthusiasm for Sanjaya. He said, "they'll have a huge party when Sanjaya leaves AI." I looked at Mark and said, "yup, cuz it'll be the night he wins!" I l'd love it if he wins, that would be cool.
Mark and I agree that Melinda is far and away the best singer in the group and we've both liked her all along but there has always been something about Sanjaya that I like. I like the Stevie Wonder thing he did in his audition and I enjoy watching him. He's having fun and clearly bugging the asses of the judges so, yay. It's a tacky, cheeseball, guilty-pleasure show. It should be fun. Having said that, I'm sure he'll sing some really bad country song in a way that will make me smile. Even when I'm groggy, I'm sure Sanjaya can make me smile.
