Highs and Lows

It's Sunday night and I should probably be in bed but there's still too much I need to get done before I'm ready for the week to start. We all know once the week starts, I'll have hardly any time for a personal life...and even when I have the time, I'm too tired to really do anything. Sometimes I feel like this job sucks the soul out of me. It's like a big bad dementor...haha...I've been reading too much Harry Potter. ;)

Anyway, so this weekend was pretty amazing. :) Two of my friends and I hung out Saturday night. I cooked dinner, then we went to a concert and afterwards we came back to my apartment and had brownies and ice cream. It was pretty much the perfect evening. I wish more evenings were like that. It's just nice to be able to laugh and talk and have a good time. There hasn't been enough of that this year.

I spent the rest of the weekend reading Pride & Prejudice. I absolutely love that book and have read it several times. Usually I relate more to Elizabeth Bennet but this time, I felt like Mr. Darcy and I have quite a lot in common. And whenever I read it, I feel like talking in really fancy English and saying things like "I'm ardently in love with you." I tend to lose myself in books and forget everything around me.

But today, reality sucked me back in. I had a meeting and then a Superbowl Party. Me and football = yes, quite ironic. I wouldn't mind it so much if I hadn't felt forced into hosting this program whether or not I wanted to. I've hosted Superbowl Parties in the past; I even watched it a few times with friends; but this year it just really bothered me that I had to do this.

Well, I should get going. I still have to respond to an e-mail and get some stuff together for work tomorrow. The week hasn't even started yet and I'm already tired. Is it the weekend yet? ;)
