This is one of my favorite Indigo Girls songs, but somehow I'd never watched the video. There's a thing near the end about living your life within 20 miles of where you were born, and that kind of stung. Because that's me. Aside from a few vacations, I've gone nowhere. And I'm afraid that in 30 years I'm going to look back and hate myself for it. Not a whole lot I can do about it, really. I've got obligations and I can't just walk away from them, but god, sometimes I want to just take Jess and the cat and run. Maybe one day.
I love my apartment, and I love the fact that I can snuggle in and be comfortable, but I'd also like something more. I don't know really what I want, but I do know that I want something.
I had my team meeting last night. My section went well. I decided that I did want to do a powerpoint, so I spent some time in the morning throwing that together. It was only a few slides, so it didn't take long at all to run through. It really wasn't anything that was earth shattering. Mostly housekeeping. It could 100% have been an email instead of a 2+ hour meeting.
That honestly was the majority of my day. Jess kindly made dinner, BBQ pork tenderloin and baked potatoes.
Today, I have a half day, so that I can take my sister to the airport for her flight to Boston. She's only there a couple of days, and will be back on Friday night. I'm a little worried about all the airline issues, but hopefully, she arrives safely.
This, of course, means I'll be sleeping in her bed for the next two nights with the dog. I usually don't sleep too well in that case, but we'll see. Hopefully, Yoda lets me get a little sleep.
On Friday, I have Frostmaiden, which should be fun, if I'm conscious for it, lol. Nah, I'll be fine. That's what coffee is for.
My sister has the news on, and I want to stab everyone who's talking. The Vyvanse hasn't kicked in yet, and I'm a little overstimulated. I am debating going and taking a shower. I think I will.
Everyone have a wonderful Wednesday!!
