A moment.
I was just sitting here finishing up a few small things before taking off for the day and I suddenly had a moment. Perhaps it was the U2 music on the headphones, or the soft glow of the lamp on my desk, or the distinct lack of sleep that I'm working on. Probably a combination of all of the above. But I definitely had a moment. A minute where I stepped back and just saw myself in this moment of my life and was pleased. It's been a long time since I had a moment like that, and, come to think of it, I think this would be the first time it has ever happened while I was actually at work. So I had to make note.
I might sleep on the bus ride home. I'm that tired. It's these damn coughs. Between Val and I, it didn't seem like we had more than 10 minutes of silence in our bedroom last night. And Buckley's, despite tasting awful, hasn't helped.
