Just a quick check-in. I think things are moving along. Still quite overwhelmed by the whole work thing, but theres just no use in worrying. It just makes matters worse.
The travel has been fine. Well, except for the early friggin flights. Left for Milwaukee on Tuesday at well, an ungodly hour in the middle of the night and made it home 20 hours later! Exhausted and groggy.
Tomorrow is another 6am flight, but that should be fun. Im meeting Tiff after our meetings (because the meetings are at my OLD company!), and shes going to take me somewhere to have a quick cocktail and Super T is gonna join us! Honestly, not 100% sure of how I feel about spending the weekend with him. It should be interesting .
Finally got around to joining a gym last night. Almost relieved. I feel like a big, squishy blob right now. And the travel and the big business dinners and the snacking are not helping me at all. I really must figure out some kind of workout schedule even when Im traveling. Especially when Im traveling. Because travel has always thrown me out of whack. But now Im traveling more than Im at home! Guess Im just plain whacked!!
Anyway. The good thing is, the gym that I joined has a branch very close to home and a branch about a block away from work too! And they have gyms all over the country .even Midtown Manhattan. I have no excuse (except for the crazy hours, I guess, but cant really use that one either). My first session with the new personal trainer is Monday. And the good thing about that is that Im so not sexually attracted to him like I was my last trainer (see bottom of entry .or read the whole entry the top part is about how unhappy I was with work at the time). Maybe I can take this guy a little more seriously. Or not. What fun is that?!
Found a place to get my nails done last night. Its a block from my apartment, and the woman does a wonderful job. They are short and natural and very classy. I dont know why, but having nicely manicured nails makes all the difference in the world to me. Before the appointment, I sat in those long-ass meetings in Milwaukee and picked my fingernails to the nubs. Yuck. So happy I found this place so close to me. Just in time!
After all my errands last night, I came home and turned on the tube and caught the tail end of The Bachelor and found myself just .I dont know weirded out. I just dont understand why these women subject themselves to such humiliation. The whole thing is just horribly embarrassing. But whatever. And the couple just doesnt look comfortable together at all. I guess a camera following every move doesnt help. But do you think that woman really wants to move to Springfield, Missouri??! Whatever. I cant believe Im actually wasting diary space writing about that stupid shit.
Guess its just the fact that Im lonely again. I just realized that its been two years since Ive had a boyfriend. A real boyfriend, not just some crazy infatuation thing. And its not even that I want to throw myself into a relationship. I cant even figure myself out right now, let alone someone else. It would just be nice to have someone here who already understands me. I really would like to come home to someone. The travel sure gets lonely when I realize that theres nobody anywhere whos waiting for me.
Wah. Poor, poor me.
I know, there are bigger things to get all soppy about. I just cant think of them right now.
Better go get ready for work.
