The trip that was supposed to last for 2 weeks is now finally over, after 3 weeks. I'm happy to say that work wise it all went very well. We accomplished everything that we set out to accomplish and we also managed to launch another program. And after 3 weeks of extreme sleep deprivation, I'm ready for a short break. One of the mornings I decided to take the wheel as my colleague had to be on a call. While I was driving, I couldn't stop the feeling that the car seat was unusually warm. Bearing in mind it's actually summer here, it's not a nice warm feeling but more like I felt like my butt was getting cooked. When we stopped for coffee, I decided to check the car seat. Guess what? I accidentally turned the car seat heater on. Which explained why my butt was getting cooked. After we got coffee, I got back into the car and stared at my colleague for the car key. Turns out I left the car keys in my bag in the back seat. I had to get out, and grab the keys before continuing the drive to work. He was very amused. I was very tired. And not a morning person. Anyway, so the routine was breakfast, if I woke up in time, otherwise, coffee run, then office, the back to the hotel for dinner. Dinner and some drinks for a hour or so, before going back up to work until the wee hours of the morning. Grabbed a few hours of sleep before we started all over again. So yes, I'm ready for a few days off. And after the drama of not getting tickets home, I am all packed for my flight tomorrow. Yes I'm finally coming home. And the house will be empty because my parents are on vacation. As of today. At least I know I will have a very highly excited dog when I finally reach home. She will be so deprived of human affection that she will be all over me. Which is not a bad thing after being away for 3 weeks. I don't miss being away from home. But I do miss my stuff. I am so sick of the couple of outfits that I've been wearing and the shoes I have to keep wearing. I'm ready to go back to my stuff. ®

about me "You don't do things by halves. You either care passionately or you don't give a fig. You're either enagaged or vacant, ambitious or ambivalent and, usually that's helpful. It ensures continuity and clarity, but it means that sometimes you can't stand back and see things clearly. Your emotions are too caught up with commitments..."
