I was asleep...

I haven't been getting to bed very early these past couple of days. It's been busy. I finally got motivated to finish the latest stuff for PCH and had some stuff to do for the democratic party that Kekoa pimped me out for. Add on the daily podcast d/l's and RSS feeds and that takes up a good chunk of the evening.

on a plus note I'm getting a T-shirt from Experts-Exchange, a copy of MS Visual Studio 2005 and a copy of MS Office shipped to me all for free. Score.

but anyway, lots of stuff to do so not much sleep lately. Tonight I was out by 11. Then at 11:30 I get a call from Renell. If these calls last more than four minutes normally I would consider them long. It's usually a minute or two to try and schedule the next time I get to see Ryen. Tonight the call lasted 30 minutes and 57 seconds according to the cell phone call timer. If these minutes weren't free I'd have hung that shit up pretty quickly. Apparently her mom was in the hospital for testing and she was anxious or some shit and wanted somebody to talk to. what the fuck is that? seriously, isn't that a problem for the new boyfriend? There's no obligation for me to be losing sleep for her and her bullshit family anymore. Especially on the first night this week I was about to get a good nights sleep.

Now I'm kind of hungry. I'm going to go eat a piece of chicken and finish off the last of the wild turkey in the hope that it puts me to sleep. Just annoyed and felt like sharing.

Good for you, Reid! And you're damned right: it's a job for the new boyfriend to worry about crazy family members and being up at all hours of the night because she wants to talk. How nice, isn't it? To know that you are doing so well that you can think that? I'm proud of you! I'm still amazed, however, to know that you didn't hang up the phone and tell her that it was really too late to call. I suppose that part will come with time. (I distinctly remember the first time I told Kory that it was too late of him to be calling...a great and huge chasm to cross on my part.) Anyway, congrats on the free stuff coming your way, the business and somewhat fulfillment of your job, and on being able to discern your role as friend and baby's daddy from boyfriend! Cheers! Me:)

no the not hanging up has nothig to do with not being able to, it was that i was already awake. i sleep lightly and i didn't get back to sleep until early the next morning anyway, since i was already awake and wasn't going to fall asleep, i don't really care other than it's an annoyance.

the bigger annoyance was being woken up anyway and that was already done.
