One of Those Days

Today is one of those days where I want to run away and hide. When I want revert to being back in high school because then I could rejoice in the comfort of knowing Mom & Dad would always be there with warm supper. Life was easier then, although I never believed I would say that. My success was measures on a report card - As long as I was getting A' & B's it was OK and as sad as it sounds, my big social plans consisted of going to the local shoneys after football games and band competitions. Everything was so clear-cut. Reminiscing about those times makes me sad, I should stop.

The other day, when I was drying my hair I had one of those, "holy crap, you're an adult revelations." I think I am at the age where I have those a lot. It is not that I am not happy with my life, I am completely, totally, 100% happy. I absolutely love Justin, our families are doing well, and in most cases our friends are groovy. I think I just need a vacation. Justin was fortunate enough to take off for his road trip this summer, but I have not been away from work for consecutive days since the few days I took at Christmas last year. I was suppose to take the week of October 14th, but with the potential move in the future I postponed that, thinking that I would take it around the move. Problem is that I feel a burn-out coming and now is not a good time. Justin and I are looking at going to Madison the week of Nov. 14th - do some personal scouting out and lead generation for GraySail - so that will pretty much be work too. I know Hoke is in dire need of a vacation, much more so than me – I reckon I should not feel bad.

Then there is the fact that fantasy football is stressing me out. There is controversy about a trade Justin and I did. I try not to think about it though because then it makes me want to just drop all my players and quit. That is not good though.

I think a bad thing about having a blog is the fact people can read it. Funny how you want to rant about stuff, but you can't because it 'isn't professional' or 'you'll offend someone' - that sucks. Maybe I just need to get a real journal, although part of the release of writing some things is knowing that those involved with the topic will read it and get the point.

The stress of today ran over into on the way home as well – Justin got a little pissy about fantasy football and I got pissy back. Such as life – we went to the new Aldi near the house and did some grocery shopping and then everything was OK. Food tends to placate us both. :-)

I have dinner in the oven, it is about ready so I better go. -- Keep it real.
