  • it's saturday, 8.15pm GMT. here i am, in london, and i'm exhausted. i fell asleep around 3am last night, mumbling (semi) sweet nothings on skype to my babe. i must have been completely exhausted though, because amazingly, i woke up at 5pm today. in other words, i've been awake for 3 hours. it was dark when i went to sleep, and dark when i woke up.

    i think my body is crashing. i've been working too hard, and i'm drained. physically. mentally. this was not a trip for pleasure. every day, it has been 12 hours in the office, and then routinely another 2-3 hours of work before i drift off to sleep. working like a dog can't continue so i'm counting down to the moment i can leave the UK and head back home. i need some normalcy. actually, i need a break. and going home will be a vacation to me- the comforts of my home, my family, the fellow who has my heart right now. it sounds just blissful. heavenly. 139 hours left here before i leave. and then back in time five hours, to the EST.

    it was no suprise that with all this hard work, i let loose at our office christmas party here in london. the theme was angels and sinners. i of course was angelic, and my brussels HR colleague, was devilish.



    exhausted from the crazy pace of work, i had about seven cocktails and was a dancing fool at the party which went until 1am. i closed the place down but made it home safely. no public regurgitating either.

    my head is so discombobulated right now. i guess that's what 14 hours of sleep does to you. just some thoughts.
