I'm trying to fit as much in as possible so that I don't get depressed and so when I move away I don't feel like I missed anything or when I'm old I won't think back and go only if... I wish I would have... But I'm exhausted. I don't want work to consume me and I don't want to give up fun but are these activities worth it if I tire myself out and keep thinking about what I have to do and how long it is until I can go too sleep?
Last week I went to a movie on Monday, went out for drinks and sushi on Tuesday, a folk concert on Thursday, a peruvian folk concert and shopping on Friday and then Lexie, Emily and two of their friends were here for the weekend so we did all of the tourist stuff and went out. Then it was more shopping on Sunday, another movie on Monday, the pistons game last night, and happy hour tonight. Now I am at the Kennedy center waiting for the Martha graham company to start. And then Friday is my companys holiday party which will lead to after parties. And with all of this I am working. Blah. I'm enjoying myself and want to prove to my roommates I can be active and work (because when I was temping and not working full time they wouldn't do things and use being tired from work as an excuse and I wouldn't accept that so now I can't be like that) but I'm exhausted.
Today I went to another location of my company for their office party. Salmon, risotto, and wine, oh my! Tomorrow is my office's party for our clients during the day and we will have food and liquor! My job may be stressful but we know how to celebrate! 3 parties in one week! And there are more next week at other locations.
We made a catering mistake today for one of the conferences so I got to bring some of the food home and am looking forward to my 10:00 dinner. I also got to bring 3 bags of starbucks coffee Home. Whoohoo for perks!
The wine, beer, cigarettes, and lack of dinner have me a headache. I love modern dance but I fear I won't be enjoying tonight.
