I should never be allowed to drink coffee in the evenings. It is bad and leads to sleepless nights. Monday night I turned the lights off at 10:30 (after having two cups of coffee over the course of the evening) and found myself still awake at 3:30. So I got up, did some more yoga, took a couple of Tylenol PM and finally drifted of to sleep sometime about an hour later. Fortunately I didn’t have to go into work on Tuesday.
I had taken the day off in order to run around and get everything ready for the Swearing in Party for Group 72. They swore in at Coconuts Resort in the morning and we threw them a beach party/BBQ at Taumeasina yesterday afternoon. I think it went over pretty well.
It did however make it clear to me that I am a much better “Man behind the curtain” than a Social chair. I attribute this to my belief that “everyone does exactly what he or she wants to do, and no one should have to be talked into anything”, which naturally makes me a lousy motivator. And often when dealing with crowds a motivator/director/cattle prod is needed. I’m just no good at it.
But at least I covered this time… I make no promises about next time.
Around 9 we met up at EyeSpy for a few more drinks with the New Volunteers and I didn’t get home until far after my bed time. At least we got in a late night SunRise run. (SunRise is a Chinese TOGO food place that caters to feeding the late night post parting crowd. The food is greasy and only moderately tasty but it does the job for those late nights when you had a few to many.) So now I have gone two nights without a decent nights sleep. Fortunately I haven’t yet turned into the ugly green monster “Tired Cranky Dorie” but I figure that if I don’t go home immediately after work and fall into a comma she will rear her ugly head.
Ok, time for me to head to the office to pick up what I hope is a package from Max. Have a great day everyone.
