This work thing is KILLING ME!!

Man, I didn’t realize how good I had it when I was “on hiatus”, sleeping in, no worries about traffic, being on time (those early morning hours I love so much), scheduling appointments for any old time. It’s nice to have a regular income again, instead of my government dole, but I am sure struggling with going to bed at a “reasonable” hour, and getting up at 5:30-6:00 am. And it’s really been a struggle with the music blog launching–I have all of these ideas for posts, and then I get home and am wiped out from fighting traffic and the blistering heat, plus trying to get ready for the Alaska trip, and just life in general. There have been a ton of great shows that I have missed in the past 2 or 3 weeks because I either felt like shit after my crown lengthening nightmare, or was just exhausted from the new day gig, or am trying to save $$$ to spend in Seattle/Alaska/Vancouver. I’ve been out a little, but I’ve definitely struggling with balance–I see a big need for more physical activity, for a myriad of reasons. I’m trying to connect the dots in training, and it’s getting clearer, but being there at 7:15 in the morning is just soooo not natural for me–I am nocturnal by nature (it’s in my genes!), and feel like I am stranded in a the wasteland that is MetroCenter. The folks are good, though.

Who knows what the future might hold though, hopefully something will work out. I’m just praying about it, keeping an open mind, and opening myself up to possibilities and blessings.
