I got more sleep last night than I did the two and half prior combined. I spent most of the day on household admin, and now here I am, back the computer to BEGIN putting the finishing touches on my paper. I am so tired. I haven't had any real E.A.T. in months. Last Friday Justin took me out for a very special bday dinner. That was really nice. We've maintained our Friday "date nights", but that's been the majority of our quality time together. Quality time for myself has been zero.
It's so hard to get used to living a certain way and then dropping a bomb in it. More and more I'm becoming assured that any want I've ever had regarding children has stemmed from hormones and boredom. I love babies. I love my friends babies. I love being "Auntie Amy." I think I'm good at it. I'm naturally maternal which is really weird considering I never wanted kids. Maybe it comes with hips and tits. Nature really wants me to reproduce.
I'm so tapped that I just sat down and the computer for the first time today to hit the books and it only took about .5 seconds for me start crying for no real reason. Justin just laughed and let me put my face in his shoulder. I'm so glad he can handle my crazy. I love school. LOVE IT! But this has been one trying semester and I cannot wait to say "good bye" to it. (As a public service announcement, with the busy week I have ahead, the number of mini-sundaes I've been consuming and the random tears I've been crying, I advise keeping your distance for the next ten days. =p)
Saturday we're going to our friends' daughters 1st birthday, then Sunday we're bailing to hike a trail across the bay from SF. It's going to be a MUCH needed mini-break. We've decided that this summer we're going to try to do something active out-doors every other weekend at the least. We love hiking and we love running. And we live in Northern California. We need to take advantage of it while we can. Who knows where we'll be living in a year.
Nice. One year. I will be laughing at how badly this paper kicked my ass once I hit law school. =)
Okay, time to stop procrastinating.
