That is how much Starbucks espresso I have had today. I even went to the gym after work… and I am still feeling it. I hope I crash in about 10 minutes.

I thought after graduate school I would be done feeling over worked. But that just totally isn’t the case. I think, and I hate to say this, that I am an over-achiever. And I totally don’t want to be. I want to come home and not think about papers and data. I want to work out, play video games and pet my cute little doggie. But there is always a shadow hanging over my days. A shadow of the historical data of corn crops in the US… a shadow of cows eating spent grains from ethanol plants… AHHHHHHHH!!!! More vodka. Less caffeine. Maybe that would do the trick?

I am actually stressed about work. It seems that I have many things to get done, but not enough time to do them. Additionally, I find that I work best from home where it is quieter and more relaxed. I feel that I get a better quality of work when I am at home. Unfortunately that doesn’t work so well around the office. I generally don’t ask because it seems that no one else does it.

Anyway. I like working from home. And maybe after to mad rush to make this deadline I will ask if I can work from home in Santa Rosa.

I just wanted to let everyone know that Miss Pebbles is hosting her own little pugdog blog! This is in anticipation of her little sister arriving… well that and really, she deserves her own little space on this world wide web.

Don’t forget to stop and see her!

You know how some people are super productive in the mornings? And some at night? Well it turns out that I am not really productive any time of day. I imagine if I wouldn’t play on the Internet all morning I would probably get things done then. But then when would I check my facebook account?

You know, people claim that Mondays are hard. But for me Tuesdays Are the worst. I went home and too a nap after work. It was about an hour long and it was purely an accident. Pebbles curled up with me and from 5-6 we were out.

But what really made this Tuesday hard is that all I wanted was a hamburger. And I just talked myself out of it. I didn’t want to go out alone. And now, I still want that hamburger. It isn’t like I have a problem going out by myself. Just yesterday.

Anyway. Random, yes! But nothing but the truth.

It is so sad. We’ve spent months looking forward to the wedding and now all we can do is look back. My parents and grandma leave bright and early tomorrow morning. The last of our aunts and uncles leave later in the morning. And this concludes the perfect wedding week.

My sister’s wedding was incredibly beautiful. I don’t think things could have possibly gone better. I hope that lisa and lam look back on it with great pleasure and happiness. I really glad to have gained such a great brother. I can’t wait to see what the future brings for them.

It was also great to spend time with the family out here. I wasn’t sure that any of my dad’s family would visit us up here.

All in all, it was a great time. And now I am going to go back to watching “it’s always sunny in philadelphia”.
