I feel spoiled having last Monday off. It made it so much harder for me to get up this morning. I was like a zombie for a while. Something was off and I couldn’t figure it out all day. I wasn’t really grumpy or cranky, but I was something. The headaches are coming back full force, even when drinking coffee. So something in my body is not right. I think that my body is exhausted and my mind is on its way there too. I still wonder how I live off of little sleep for long stretches of time. I know that it will catch up to me eventually. I rarely get sick, but if I do, I hope that it’s not that bad. I hate missing work, even though it’s hard for me to wake up for. I just received a notice about my vacation hours. I have about 131 sick hours and 174 hours of vacation. Holy cow! That’s a lot of time that I can take off. I am going to try to hit up the east coast at the end of May or early June so I can see some friends. Hopefully I can hit New York, DC, and Boston. That would be ideal. I am fortunate enough to have friends there, so I hope to hang out with them. Kate has been trying to get me to go for months, but M just went this past weekend during the blizzard and it was freezing. Sam and cold weather don’t mesh very well. Anyone want to come with me? It will be so much fun!!

I had lunch with Vanessa and her friend Priya from work. Vanessa had Jamba Juice and though I love their smoothies, I cannot drink a large one for lunch and be full. I need sustenance. I need meat. This is why I know that I cannot become a vegetarian or vegan. I respect all of my friends that are because I know that I cannot be as strong as they are to cut it out of my life. So I went to Baja Fresh next door. Yum. The lovely Lisa joined us for lunch as well. Her office is right around the corner. I love how I can still meet up with my friends for lunch. That is something that I did so frequently in college and I miss it so much. I knew that I could run into some friends on Kerckhoff patio. It was where all the “cool” people hung out, heh. But lunch was nice. I need to do that more often. I need to be more organized. Hopefully I can be when I get around to buying new 2005 inserts for my organizer. Well, hopefully is the operative word.
