We survived Monday!! Holy crap work was busy. I didn't really get any downtime between calls. I ended up taking 66, which I think is a new high for me.

My sister is very talky today, and it is making me want to claw my ears off. Dad has called twice to pee and has done nothing either time and I'm a little grumpy this morning. I really don't feel like hearing about politics before 7am.

I've got a relatively quiet week at work. No meetings, though I imagine I'll have one soon, unless my manager takes the "do you have anything to discuss, because I don't" tack again this month.

We had our first meat from the farmer's market--some quite good maple breakfast sausage. Next time I will definitely get two packages, because we went through it. Tonight shall be brisket, which I'm looking forward to. The peaches I got were first class, but sadly, I will continue my quest for a really good tomato.

I'm trying to decide if we can swing both our passports this weekend, or if I need to do them one at a time. Sadly, I'm leaning towards one at a time, since it's going to be over $400 for two.

I'd like to use them, and take a week's vacation at some point, but with dad that's not likely. I'm really struggling with that. I hate that I'm stuck. It's always been a problem for me, being stuck somewhere that I can't leave. I hated it with school, I hate it with flying and I hate it with life. Especially with the research I've been doing on nomad visas, I can see the life Jess and I could have elsewhere. A quiet, comfortable life, where we only have to deal with our own shit. I want a little apartment with a cat and the food that we like in our fridge. I want to go to the local market to get food a couple of times a week, so that we're not trying to store a whole two weeks at once. I'd like to be able to get up and go to bed when we want. I want to be able to schedule my life with only our calendar to consider. I'd like to not have to financially support the entire family.

I'm just tired of dealing with my family. I love them, but I don't think it's healthy for either Jess or I to be here. I've already broken myself, and I don't want Jess to break themselves, too.

Okay, time for me to go forth and get ready for work. Everyone have an amazing Tuesday!
