Home Home Home

I made it, late (or early?) somewhere between July 3 and July 4. The drive home was fairly easy in terms of the actual trip, but my brain was, and is, so fried that it just felt a lot longer than it did coming out to the East Coast. I made a lot more stops than I did on the way out, which slowed me up some.

It's weird to be home. Now it's back to the "regular" life, which includes the necessity of balancing. I didn't have to balance anything at school....if anything, all I balanced was "active brain time" to "have a drink time." :) But now there's all this other stuff that needs to be done....loose ends that didn't get tied up before I left, or which came undone in my absence. I've made a list of things that need to get done and it's fairly long. Thankfully they're all pretty menial tasks, because I don't think I could handle much else right now.

I do need to go to the library, take back the old set of books and get new ones. I need to be reading, I can't go cold turkey on the poetry. Kind of like caffeine, which I was surviving on those last few days out there....I can't just not have any right now, or even go straight back to my usual consumption levels. Just have to ease through the transition.

I feel like I can't even focus on MK at all....it's so out of the realm of my head from where I was the last two weeks. But I am going to Pam's today to get myself together and make plans for the next few months. And then of course Seminar is at the end of the month, so that'll remind me. And then I'll have to rebalance again after that deluge of yet another aspect of my life....;)

Anyway, back to that list. I have to run some errands before going to Pam's.
