I had a pretty crazy weekend, kind of like being back in college crazy and very unnecessary, but extremely fun. Enough adjectives? Thursday I went over to a friend's house to bake a birthday cake for our friend, I had brought a bottle of NW wine, he had a bottle of good wine too, we HAD to make sure we drank them before everyone else showed up, who wants to share? So, after two bottles of wine, Doritos for dinner and breaking a few things, I was home and in bed by 9:30 and up and running by 5:00. Surprisingly the run was awesome! It was beyond hot and somehow I ended up running around 16 - 17 miles at a minute and a half faster per mile than what I had been doing. When I first joined the running club I was shocked by the Mars bars and coke and water stops, I'm pretty sure they would think I was crazy if I carried around wine and ate Doritos, but whatever works. After the run all the counselors were all invited over to Diana's house for a Champagne Brunch. It turned into quite a day. We had a great time talking, drinking and just relaxing. A few of us went over to one of the apartments and went swimming, dancing and eating till late at night, very fun!
So, I'll take a quick break here... the other night, after not sleeping the night before and missing a day of work, I decided to write in my blog, take an ambien and go to sleep. I think it made me a bit crazy, the keyboard started swimming and I hardly made it to my bed. I vaguely remember it; the next morning it was all kind of coming back to me, then I went to check my e-mail and saw my blog, I was cracking up. Misspelled words, it didn't make any sense and then a long string of dddddd's....
Anyways, the rest of the weekend and the beginning of the week were ok. For whatever reason, I have stopped sleeping, I used to not sleep at home, but I was never tired, this week, I've been exhausted, and annoyed. I tried nothing and didn't sleep, ambien, and lost it, a different drug that didn't work and last night Benedryl, which just made me ridiculously tired and edgy all at once. I did eventually fall asleep around 2:30. Hopefully tonight will be different.
I'm trying to figure out what I should do next year. It's pretty much all I think about. I still cannot stand my job, I wish it would get better, because I like Dubai; it is a great place to travel from and there are tons of places I still want to see in the Middle East and I know that I won't have time to this year, I've already planned all my vacations. But... work is horrible. I keep thinking it can't get worse and then one more thing will happen. There is a job fair in Cambridge in February that I'm thinking about attending. I'd have to decide soon and I have no idea how I would pay for it and get the time off, but, I may try to work something out. I'd like to go to South America. Who knows...
