Day 319 is lucky

You folks are in for a treat! Even though I was already back from Iceland on Day 319, I'm posting a waterfall photo from south Iceland. Basically, I was in a foul mood upon my return, got out of work late, ate dinner and went to bed at 8:30 p.m. Trust me, this is a better photo than my office parking lot.

Day 171 does her homework

Over the past several days I've learned a thing or two about my work habits: I hate deadlines and I'm a really slow writer. I am writing five city guides for work, nothing overly creative or time-consuming - or so I thought. I spent almost two hours this afternoon writing 250 words. That's bad, folks. Knowing how much I have to do by the close of tomorrow, I spent the entire evening researching and writing. The worst part? I'm nowhere near done. My brain is beyond fried and I desperately want to go to bed. I wish I could put this in as overtime...

Workin' late on Day 6

I put in a pretty rough 14 hours of work today. Rough for me at least. I definitely have friends and family who work this kind of day on the regular, but not me. My body and my eyes were not prepared for such a thing. Around 6pm I was struck with a hunger that would have caused me to do crazy, crazy things if it went on much longer. Thankfully, chinese food for the "sleepover" team arrived just in time and I was saved from taking a trip to "omg, feed me now before i eat this keyboard" land. Around 8pm my eyes stopped being able to focus and there was definitely some blurry vision involved. By 9:45 I knew it was time to go home or I wouldn't be able to drive without being a danger to myself and others. A shower, some egg rolls and really comfy pajamas capped off this long day. And now... my very cozy bed awaits! Holla, Day 6!!
