April 27 - Under the Gun/Guy in These Foolish Things

I am busy, busy, busy at work. So busy that I can’t wait to leave work every day - my weekends are like dreams come true, and I spend them NOT thinking about work as much as I possibly can.

Last week, after I came back from my PHX trip, I had a scare. I got back Wed. night and by Thurs. morning I was having chest pains. Not like gas (as a few people suggested), but pains that I’ve never felt before in the middle of my left chest/upper breast area.

They went away after a day, but came back again yesterday when I had a late meeting called at 5PM. I’m giving a presentation in San Diego this week and the presentation looked like shit. Nothing was formatted correctly, and one of the EVPs who is attending this meeting was absolutely PISSED. I was embarrassed and stressed (though it was not my fault, I still felt awful about the state of the presentation). And my pains came back.

Do I have hypertension? I need to have this checked out when I get back from San Diego. I know I shouldn’t mess with this.

As soon as I get back I have to prep for my next China trip. It always takes me a month to prep for various reasons - the logistics, setting up meetings, getting in touch with the people I need to work with, obtaining a visa, developing my product, shopping for necessities (feminine hygiene is very different over there…), etc. etc. etc.

And then there’s the guy. I am marching in place with the Bulldog and getting frustrated. How is it possible that I enjoy him so much when all he does is tell me that I deserve someone better? Clearly, there is something wrong with me.

He came over last night. We had a late dinner and some tequila. It’s always a good time when that happens. He refuses to spend the night, but he left at 1:30 this morning.

I gotta get out from under my stress and my mess.

I love you,
GS
