Adrenaline

You know what kinda stinks? When I work at closing shift at Rudys, that means I get off at 10:30 at night or possibly later than that, up to midnight sometimes. Well, closing is a lot of physical activity, cleaning, straightening, closing things up, lifting, sweating, etc. It gets me going. It gets your blood pumping, kinda like a work out. Anyways, so then I get off work... and the world is asleep and Christi is anything but. Like tonight for instance, I closed in the Country Store, left work... and had nothing to do. Becky is still super jet lagged and is rightfully wanting to sleep away. So, she's already in bed. I text message Karen, get no response. So she's either asleep or doing something fabulous with her husband. I wanna do something fabulous.

If life was perfect...
Kristina would live in Austin.
My parents would move back to Texas.
Craig would hurry up and come home from Hawaii.

THEN, maybe, I'd have something to do right now besides sit outside of a closed Roasters Coffee Shop and look like a creeper sitting out in my car stealing internet. Because, well, that's what I am.

So all night at work tonight I felt excited. Or nervous... or anxious. I dunno! Something. It was like a constant state of adrenaline in my chest! I wanted to run around or work super efficiently. I wanted to have huge conversations with everyone, talk about everything with the girl I was working with, make jokes with all the customers. It was like Christi times ten. Christi on crack. I dunno what thats like because I've never done "crack" (I'm... not quite sure what it is, actually).

Wikipedia says this about adrenaline, "When secreted into the bloodstream, it rapidly prepares the body for action in emergency situations." Um, there was no emergency situation. I dunno what was wrong with me. But I was ready to go go go. I still am right this minute! Dunno what it is.

You know what I love?
I'm talking to three people I graduated with right now
:-)
Over and out. (but not out and about. ergh)
Christi

I love reading your posts. I'm glad you want us to move back to Texas. I do too. Sorry everyone was asleep. Hopefully, Becky will get her meds tomorrow and start feeling better. Love you.

I think that just happens sometimes--there are those days and nights where you are SO ready to get out and do something, and no matter how many people are in town, they're all doing something with out you. Or they're busy. Or they're sleeping.
It happens to me a lot! Even being married...Daniel often will do something like go play golf on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon, and you'll be working, and Courtney's at the lake, and Annie's teaching swimming lessons, and Jana is recovering a couch or something. And all I want is to have fun with someone on my gorgeous weekend...but I'm alone.
P.S. You are leaving me for a week! Have fun :)


We should go out with some HC grads again. That was fun :)
