Two weeks in Montana
Posted Aug. 3, 2008 by Gabriel Hurley
I didn't even realize how desparately I needed a vacation until it hit me tonight that I've done hardly anything in more than four days and I still don't feel even remotely bored or ready to do anything BUT rest.
Six months of non-stop work, putting in 40 hours at one job and another 30 or so of research, planning, paperwork, and building bits and pieces all to create a company so I'd have a second job? And the two months since then it's just traded all the stress of setup for actually trying to follow through and build a base of clients and do the real work.
So tonight, after four days of sleeping, swimming, eating, hot-tubbing, strolling through town, and barely being asked to do anything... I finally remembered how much energy I used to have. That I used to be the person that was always up for doing something, for hanging out, for sports, for everything. I've just been pouring energy out for the last 8 months. It's a damn good thing I have so much of it, otherwise I couldn't have done it.
There's a part of me that feels like it would be nice to forget it all and go back to the simpler life of my one regular job, my band, and singing, dancing and acting with the Revels (some people might think that's a lot to begin with) but to me, now, that just sounds too easy.
But hey, it's nice to have somebody to miss back home in Cali ;-)
Yeah, I know the feeling. Really having absolutely nothing at all to do is fantastic. It's the same out here.
You need to set up openID on this blog, and make it so that when I don't fill in all the forms, it deletes my comment and makes me start again.
Grats on the somebody. I need to meet this one this time, yeah?
