Seven A.M. Can Blow Me...

So... it's 7:30 in the morning...
And I am working the desk...
Until 4:00 tonight...
And that makes me want to cry
Because I am on duty tonight...
Which means I will not be sleeping
For quite some time...
And if you know me at all,
I like me some sleep...

So anyway, this has been a long week.
I had a lovely weekend with Connie.
We went to lovely Vermilion
And walked around the Fish Festival
All day Saturday...
And we did not think about the desk
Or duty... Or the millions of other things
That were waiting for us back in Kent...
We just had fun.
We ate lots of junk food, and went to the beach
And picked up fun rocks and things like that.

When we stopped at my house
So my Dad could put my new license plates
On my new car (new enough, anyway...)
My Mom and Dad both appeared to be
NORMAL
And if you know my parents at all
You could understand my apprehension
At introducing someone new to them.
But they were nice...
And like normal parents
And it was strange, and it made me happy
Even if it was only a one time occurance.

I took pictures, and soon I will post them
Because it was a lovely fun time.
But it still doesn't make today suck any less...
