Caught up

After two days of working steady like my life depended on it, I am finally caught up or so I think.  I am relaxing and trying to take it easy at the moment. 

My massage therapist reached out yesterday afternoon and offered me a 90 minute opening yesterday but I was just too busy to break away.  I’ve got a knot in my left shoulder blade that is really bothering me.  I really wanted to go see her but alas I have an appointment on Friday.  Last night was calm but being on-call you never know exactly when or if something will get kicked up.  I just stay available as much as I can especially during the week.  The weekends are different I throw caution to the wind probably a little more than I should but rarely does something come up on a weekend.  That said I had the opportunity to do something I’ve wanted to do for a while this weekend and while I wanted to give in I thought of Murphy’s Law and opted to decline and push it to another weekend. 

I worked out my most of my PC issues.  Although I still have some issues with visiting blogs that have the adult flag on.  Google Chrome tells me that I have a cookie issue.  I just wind up trying a couple different browsers until I am eventually successful.  I will tackle that problem when I have a bit more time on my hands.

I was able to have a decent evening.  I watched a little TV, had supper and lounged on the couch with the cats until they opted to take their evening naps.  Mora really lets loose when she knows I am close by and she starts snoring.  I think they both feel like I am on guard so they can get some sound sleep for a bit, since they will be guarding me all night long.  Although I am not fully convinced they don’t seriously drift off once I am sound asleep. 

At any rate it gave me the ability to really pour some time into continuing on with a fantasy story I am writing.  I was enjoying myself and before I knew it an hour had passed by.  It’s nice to be able to take an escape from reality even if it’s only for an hour. 

Had a nice hot shower, took some extra sleeping medicine, brushed & flossed then had some play time with the cats.  Once they were no longer interested in playing I went to play with myself.  By then the sleeping medicine was kicking in and I was seriously drowsy.  I felt my self drifting off and wanted to get up to get in bed but didn’t make it in time.  I woke up a short time later and then took the opportunity to climb in bed and turned the TV off.  It was lights out and I was in dreamland.  Slept pretty good. 

It’s a humid rainy day here and that’s the story for the weather for the next few days.  I went up to use the bathroom and both cats were relaxing.  It’s a perfect day for a nap or to call in sick, which I gave serious thought to.  I really want more time away it like everything else in life I get a good taste and I can’t seem to get enough. 

Thankfully the weekend is closer than it was on Monday.  I’ve got my massage Friday night and then on Saturday I am getting my hair cut again.  I wear it short in the summer and I just had it cut in the last two weeks and I am going to go even shorter to buy some additional time between cuts.  The only problem with that is that it itches when it grows back. 

Hoping that the rest of the day is relaxing.  Got my usual Wednesday meeting with my team which is nothing but babble, it’s a way to let the boss know what your working on but truth be told we could easily skip these nonsense meetings.  He (the boss) likes to hear his own voice and tends to talk most of the meeting and then hurry everyone else along.  Once that is done I will be happier. 

Man candy will post in a couple hours so check back if that is of interest.  Back to the daily grind isn’t so much fun but it does pay the bills.  I hope all is well in your world and that life is smiling on you.  Take care.
