I don't know what to type this morning. I have a bit of a brain lock. I have been up for a little while already. Woke up to about 9 emails. Most of them useless, but there's nothing like a whole lot of emails flashing on your phone to jar you up.

Finished up class yesterday with no real issues. I was not a fan of my students this week to be honest. They were just flat. I like students who interact and respond to my questions. This group was just boring. This happens all the time on this particular class because of the type of person it attracts and it always tends to bring me down. Their energy level messes with my energy level. But I got through it.

Got my paycheck this morning. My Q2 bonus was on there. An extra $700 after taxes. Not going to complain. Now I can pay bills. Whee. Reminder to myself - call movers today. I did get final confirmation yesterday I am going to NJ 8/22 to 9/2. That just sucks. Those dates are right in the middle of the final move days and it's going to put a lot of pressure on me to make sure everything is done before the movers get here on 9/4. On the plus side, it's 7000 miles round trip added to my account and 10 more hotel nights. I did book a nice hotel with a 2 room suite overlooking the NY skyline. Hey, if I have to be stuck in NJ over a weekend, I am going to try and enjoy myself. I will be close to Manhattan and may try to get into the city on the weekend. This is a $30,000 deal for my company which isn't bad for 10 days worth of work for sure. I need $40,000 per month to hit my bonus numbers and if I can grab a huge chunk in one trip, so be it.

Packed the bathroom last night after work. No real reason other than I wanted to feel like I accomplished something. This weekend I want to finish a couple of specific areas which should make me feel better about being gone. That should help reduce some of my stress.

Played some video games, watched some TV, ate some food. That's about it.

Today I have docs to work on, and then I think we will have some time to ourselves. We got into it a bit yesterday because being at home is starting to take its toll on me. Plus we have reached the point where we need a break from each other. People don't realize how hard it is when you see someone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Always in the same place together. Going to an office every day is beneficial. You can interact with other people. When it's just the two of you every day all day, it can be frustrating. At least for me.
