Not enough holidays (or is it too much?)

Five days off go too quickly this time of year.

I have to go back to work tomorrow. I'm not all that upset about the whole "work" aspect of it... I mostly just wish that I could have some more time to sleep and relax.

Christmas was wonderful, but it was so, so busy. Today was pretty much the only day that I've had time to myself to just relax. I wish I'd had more of that.

It's not that I didn't love seeing all my friends. I wouldn't have wanted to eliminate any of my social events over the past 5 days. It's just that it's been a little overwhelming to have so much to do all at once. I'm not generally a social butterfly, and I'm not used to cramming so much activity into such a short time.

By yesterday evening I had reached my breaking point. I went out for dinner with some friends, and although I did have a good time, by the end of the visit I was ready to just head into my bedroom and lock the door. Lack of sleep mixed with annoyance that one of my friends didn't seem to want to do anything that the rest of us wanted to do and would NOT compromise, made for a very cranky Heather.

And then when I got home my brother put me on the spot asking me to "loan" (read: give) him some of my alcohol stash, and I blew up at him. He kept pushing, and then we had a lovely little spat in front of our houseguest. Gotta love that.

Today was a lot mellower. I slept until noon, went out to a new Japanese restaurant for lunch, watched cartoons and started in on the enormous stack of dished that has piled up over the weekend. I figure I could use another day of this and I'd be back to my old self, but alas, I have to go back to work tomorrow.

Cross your fingers for me that work is quiet tomorrow.

yesterday tomorrow
