mmm, finally got to quasi-catch up with my little sisdre. Met her over her "lunch" break, and we had breakfast/brunch: yummy hashbrowns, eggs, bacon, & toast... and coffee, lots of coffee.
For some reason I've been having a really hard time sleeping lately, and an even harder time getting up/out of bed sans a throbbing headache! Coffee doesn't always dissipate the issue, but gives me the amusing idea that perhaps it may put the pain at bay... eventually!
As I am, she is still looking for the job of her dreams. She may be a bit better focused than myself for a "little" sister... but we're each different, right!? She just really needs to get her foot in the door at the right news station. We all will look back at these days (when she's all big and famous, and journalisming) and laugh, I'm sure, about The Ranch!
At least she's gainfully employed, and working enough to pay bills & such! I could deal with that. (Ftr: it was nice to hear someone in my family offer up a word of encouragement in the area of employment for myself. She actually sort of talked me down from a grunt-work opportunity out of town, assuring me, "I'm sure you'll find an actual job!" It was just what I needed to hear! *tears*)
After we ate, and she headed back to the grindstone, I hit the homework. I've found that actually sitting down in a new environment, with free coffee refills, gives me a greater clarity in focusing on the words in front of me. Plus, it's always exciting to me to be meandering about at home (later) and suddenly realize, 'I don't have to do my homework... I already did it!'
It's become a habit for tuesday mornings, I can deal with that!
Getting a job is going to put a funny feeling on my random schedule of late. But I'm ready for that, too!
