Just One Good Day

That is my wish for this week. I just want a nice, normal, not-strung-up-on-wires day. I feel like I've been living the last month plus in a state of permanent hysteria. I've been worried about inspections, caterings, my co-worker falling ill and the general panic induced by trying to toe the line. Even when the line is dumb. Even when they move the line. I'm tired, I'm eating crap, I'm not exercising and I miss Christmas. But I am hanging on by my fingernails and teeth. Even though part of me wants to say "Chuck it" and run away to my mom's house, where my mom will make me dinner and my dad will solve all my problems. I miss the days when it was that easy. It isn't anymore and being an adult largely sucks. So I'm just waiting for a better day.

But home is calling.
