If it makes you feel any better, since most of ya'll are probably at work or just getting home to cook dinner, you should sympathise on the fact that I went no where.
Meaning, I didn't get in my car and drive more than an hour away from home; I didn't hop on a plane and take that long overdue vacation; and, I didn't see all the friends I planned on seeing or dining on all the yummy food I have been too busy to try.
Spring Break, as an adult, SUCKS.
My list of to-do's, I soon found out, was longer than the time I had to do it all.
Doctor follow-ups, client invoicing (tsk-tsk), family stuff, homework, and life in general, far outweighed my need to take a break.
So two days into a week that I was supposed to use as a time to relax, I turned into an emotional mess and broke down. I NEED A VACATION.
I don't have time, and most of my extra money is invested back into my continuing education. I don't regret it. Not. One. Bit, but it's hard.
It's hard to say no to that extra pair of shoes (that were sooo darling, by the way), because I have to buy film and photography paper.
The weekday at Catalina? That time was better spent driving clear across the city to get a head-start on my photography homework, while the "lunch-with-friends" was cut short when my pre-scheduled phone interviews (for another class) cheated me out of my two-hour lunch.
To add insult to injury, we are looking to buy a condo (or townhome, or home)...that process is basically Chinese torture.
It's no secret...
I. Am. Spent..and can't wait till I can breath a little and take some time off before heading back to school this fall.
