I really hope that this will turn out to be a good thing and that he stays with the right team.
If not, hopefully I’ll have this to fall back on for entertainment during the long baseball season. I got totally hooked this weekend and now I just have to find the money to buy it for myself…or hope that I get it for my birthday.
Comments closedEver since we returned from Hawaii I can’t seem to sleep at night. At first I blamed it on the time change, but we’ve been back for over a week now so I figure I should be adjusted. I generally go to bed around 10:00 during the week and later on the weekends when I don’t have to get up so early. For the last week or so I’ve had to force myself to go to bed at 11:00 even when I’m not tired. Regardless of what time I actually get to sleep, my alarm clock is still going to wake me up at 6:15 so I can’t allow myself to stay up any later than that. It is always a struggle to get up in the morning.
Yesterday afternoon while Zach was napping I wanted to take advantage of the situation and get some quiet computer time in. After about five minutes of staring at the computer screen I just couldn’t keep my eyes open. I eventually set the computer aside and gave in. I slept for about two hours before I realized it. Then of course when it was time to go to bed last night I couldn’t sleep. I even took some Benadryl to see if it would help but even with the Benadryl fog I still tossed and turned all night. When the alarm went off this morning I felt like I hadn’t slept at all.
I suppose my internal clock could still be out of whack because of the trip, but this is getting a bit ridiculous. I just want to get a good night’s sleep in. Even two or three good nights a week would be a great improvement.

I tried to get a picture of the bites on Zach’s face but I had a hard time capturing it the way it really looks. As bad as it looks in the pictures, it looks even worse in real life. I’m just afraid of what it will look like tomorrow when the bruising comes out.
Comments closedIs it a bad thing when the inspirational messages inside my Dove chocolates wrappers (yes that’s plural) piss me off? And really, what does that say about me?
I wonder if the need to protect my child will ever go away. I’m guessing I’ll still feel it when he’s 40. The bite at day care is still nagging at me.
I’m quickly inching towards 29, and while that doesn’t really worry me, the fact that I’m that much closer to 30 kind of freaks me out. Too bad I can’t just stop having birthdays after this year. I suppose I should just embrace it and move on.
Speaking of freaking me out, a couple of days ago I went to the restroom at work (exciting, huh?) and there was another woman walking into one of the stalls. When she saw me she freaked out, said she had stage fright and walked out of the bathroom. When I was finished and walked out of the bathroom she was standing by the door waiting to go back in. Apparently not only does she have stage fright but she can’t be in the bathroom if someone else is peeing. I wondered what in the heck she’s going to do if she ever has kids.
Free music is totally awesome! I entered a contest on a music blog a while back and won a free Lucinda Williams cd. I probably would not have bought it on my own but I am enjoying listening to something a little different today.

This is the view from the balcony of the hotel Hubby and I stayed at lastnight. Zach stayed with his Granny and Papa and let us have a night to ourselves.
We head home tomorrow and I’m a little bummed out about that. We’ve really enjoyed our time here and are definitely not ready to go home to the cold.
Comments closedIt seems like this week cannot possibly go by any slower. Usually I’m wanting time to slow down, but this week I just want it to speed up already! I suppose the last few short work weeks probably perpetuated the feeling a bit but it just seems like the week is going on and on and on. I’m sure it has nothing to do with the fact that I leave for Hawaii on Saturday. Nothing at all.
I have my suitcase partially packed. All of my clothes (and Zach’s) are packed with the exception of a few last minute things that had to be washed. Zach’s backpack full of toys, snacks, blanket, pillow, and other distractions is almost ready. I just have to figure out whether to pack the dvd player in his bag or mine. I need to make myself a checklist of all of the various electronic devices and chargers we need so I don’t forget anything important.
I’m really slugging along at work today. Other people keep distracting me (which isn’t hard to do) and I’ve gotten nothing done.
My lovely cold–that I totally thought was clearing up–is back with a vengeance. It started yesterday afternoon and has gotten worse since then. It seems to be clouding my brain quite a bit today and keeping me from being able to think very much. I have a feeling that the people sitting around us on the 6 1/2 hour flight from Vegas to Hawaii will love me.
So, for lack of having anything intelligent to actually say today, I’m going to ask a question. We’re going to Hawaii and I know there are some really cool things to see there, I just don’t know what. I know we’re planning to go to Pearl Harbor and on a whale watching cruise or something but that’s about it. We’re going to be staying in Honolulu and probably won’t travel to the other islands unless we suddenly become rich. So, where should we go and what should we do?
