Huh. A customer in Elkheart, Indiana had a problem. So I got on a plane and flew to Chicago, rented a car, drove to Elkheart, spent two days fixing the problem, drove back to Chicago, napped in the airport for three hours, then flew home.
Did I set aside some time for some night life in Chicago? Did I look up Adam or some other Chicago SG faces? Museum of science and industry? Ummmm . . . no. I had kids to get home to, some weird jet-lag thing that kept waking me up at midnight and putting me to sleep at 5:00 am when I had a 7:30 meeting, and a comforter that stank like my grandma's used to. No, I just kept my head down, did my work, and ate some pie.
Maybe a little night life? Maybe an Elkheart strip club or a little evening dancing? Guess again. Elkheart is Amish country, with memorials for "murdered unborn babies" set up on the roadside, food service workers wearing bonnets, and no strip clubs or nightclubs as far as the eye could see.
I ironed my shirt, watched NCIS, and went to bed.
The good news is, I am home. I love my home. I love my bed, my kids, my house, and my Nausicaa DVD.
So how was YOUR Monday?

I had leg surgery and dumped my long-term boyfriend, I went back to school, I'm about two terms away from my AA (took me long enough, hah), after which I'll be going to OSU to finish up my BS in zoology as quickly as I can. I was working in a ceramics lab, but it looks like I have a new job coming as a vet assistant over the bridge here in Vancouver, where I'm living for the moment. I spend a lot of time either in school, working, or taking care of family stuff. I miss the old crowd, and I hope you do have a party one of these days, or at least that I see you out and about somewhere.
Seems like you've done well for yourself lately, want to update me about you and yours, hmm?
