I've been working my ass off again this week, late every night, but I've realized today that it's a choice to do this. Unlike unreasonable deadlines forced upon me, I am choosing revenue over leisure, a choice that is easier to make with the knowledge that in this business, revenue is unsteady and very soon my choice won't be a choice at all. I'll have all the leisure I want, and will probably worry about lack of revenue until the next phase of crazy arrives.
Knowing that's my choice, and that by choosing to work late, I'm not ruining my whole evening - that I can still accomplish small bits of practice in the margins, is freeing and mood altering. With two more hours to go tonight, it's my decision how much practice I shall engage in.
85 degrees today, and the house is still cooling off. Soon, we will reach the times when it doesn't have a chance to cool down at night, only ever increase in heat. I'm in my Tevas now and the cat won't sit on my lap, choosing the shadows of the hallway and the coolness of the carpets.
Welcome June. I never thought you'd arrive.
- i'm feeling kinda:
calm

I need to start working on more balance. Alas, the deadlines are forced upon me, and someone thought it would be great to schedule two drops on the same day. Gah.
Part of me is saying "Yay, it's June!" and the other part of me is saying "What the heck happened to May?!?" :-)
I was awakened this morning not by my alarm clock, as per ususal, but by early morning summer thunderstorms, that struck just minutes before my usual wake time. But now it's sunny and the temperature is climbing towards 90, and the humidity has settled in for a nice stay and doesn't seem to want to really go anywhere.
It may not be very environmental of me, but all I can say is "thank gawd for air-conditioning" on days like today. :-) And the summer has only just begun...
if you ever find out let me know.
Cool that it got you through the hard stuff!
Can we get together sometime between the 22nd and the 27th of this month? We'll be back. We were here for a week, but it was crazy-busy (yeah, I know... our choice... *laughter*), but we'd love to see you when we get back. It might even just be me. *grin*
Wow, I think I've been busy :) Days pass and I look at your comment and say.. .wait, that was two DAYS ago! But she just CALLED me.... oh wait, she calls me DAYS ago!? :)
Yes, I'd love to see you, always love to see you in fact. I gots a play to go to the night of the 22nd, and event on day of the 23rd (for all you kids out there, Tool races!), which actually you might be interested in and could go with us. :) And a concert on the 27th. We could aim for the 24th on Sunday if you want, or you could go with us on the 23rd, or somewhere in between. But yes, if we can, I wanna.
And yes, I'm using my journal for scheduling purposes.
And yes I love you.
Yay! Okay, so we'll aim for the 24th or something... I'll talk with the boys about the Tool races. *laughter* Maybe we'll do that! I dunno. I might just come out to the Seattle side, do some yarn shopping and then meet up at a coffee place with you or something just to sit and talk for a bit. Something quieter than roaming the streets of Seattle... though that is fun.
*hugs*
