Slept in yesterday and damn it felt good. Today too. I was on call for the majority of yesterday morning waiting to know about jury duty. I was pretty sure I didn't have to appear because it was a Thursday call and they had me on standby but I still had to wait until 11:15 to check in. Thank goodness for the internet. In the old days you'd have to go regardless and just sit in the damn room and wait. Now I was able to get things done while waiting. Much more efficient for everyone. Since I had some time to kill I went to the grocery store and got a few things. Nothing major, but things we were out of completely like bread, cat food, and toilet paper. Important stuff. Once I got confirmation that I wouldn't be going in, I then did laundry. Amazing the difference in laundry now that the kid isn't here. I mean seriously, it was like 1/5th the amount. Even with me being on the road and having to wear clothes. While I was doing laundry B got home from work. She had a migraine and went to lay down. I was going to take a nap but then a bunch of work emails came through. The upside to that is I got confirmation on everything in December. First week, Florida, third week Colorado. I WILL hit Diamond. I also got approval for a Disneyland trip. Now we just have to find a couple of days that work for everyone. Her schedule is going to get tighter with holidays coming up where mine gets a bit looser. Especially as we near the weeks of Thanksgiving and Christmas. Christmas is a Wednesday this year which means I won't have shit to do Weds-Fri that week. You watch, everyone will be out of town. January is already starting to book up but December should be okay. I am happy about the trips as it secures my Diamond status at Hilton. Score. AND I may have to go back to Vegas for a client which means this time I go through the special doors at the hotel. Suck it bitches. Played some Lego Marvel while B slept, made pork chops for dinner. We watched a couple of shows and went to bed. She still had a headache lingering so no sex for me. Oh well.

All in all I had a good day. My mind is so much better these days. I cannot be alone. Not in that sense. In the sense that I need a partner to be around me to help keep the dark thoughts out. I can be alone with my thoughts, but I need someone to help me when they go too dark. Thank god I have that now. I feel so much more stable and in control. Some bad days sure, I am mostly human. But at the same time, look at how less frequently I am going out and getting drunk on a weeknight. Look at how I am eating and actually taking care of my self. It is what it is.
