Merh and Blegh

I made a seriously unfortunate error recently.

I thought that this week we would be closing the office early at 3 pm every day of the three day week instead of at 5 pm like normal.

I came into work on Monday beyond thrilled that this was happening. This week is probably one of the least exciting weeks ever. And then I found out that I had lied to myself, and we were here everyday until 5 pm, like always.

I wanted to cry. I had been going back and forth with myself about whether or not I would leave today right after work to head back down to the 410, and had decided that since I was getting out of work at 3 pm, I'd be all over it-get out of work, make the five hour drive, and be home in time for a late dinner. But I wasn't getting out of work early.

Then last night hit. I got home from work and was not for any kind of packing, washing clothes, anything except a glass of wine (I'm working on my wine appreciation), dinner and television.

Le sigh. I guess that means I need to get my booty into gear when I get out of work tonight getting things all set for the drive tomorrow.

On a totally unrelated note, one of my favorite texting pallys is back on EST!! He lives in Cali and works throughout the day, so mostly we can't talk until at least 9-10 pm my time, and usually means late bedtimes. Not so productive for my life. But he is back in Cleveland and on my time! Not for very long, and of course over break when my bedtime is of less consequence, but still. Win.
