Holy @#$!

I did it. I shut down the computers, turned in my badge, and drove on outta there. I'm now in Los Angeles calling a square dance.

It hasn't sunk in yet. Last night I was so stressed about all the last-minute stuff that I slept about three and a quarter hours. (This was handy. I got a lot done.) But you can imagine how keyed up I've been all day. My shoulders haven't unknotted yet.

I suspect that tonight -- I suspect that somewhere between the time I fall asleep and the time I realize there's absolutely no need to get up on time, it will sink in then. :-)

Congratulations! Sorry to hear you were so stressed all day, I hope the square dance is more relaxing and has helped with that.

Of course, if you need a backrub, you might be able to talk me into it. :)

I have the most immense amount of energy at this dance. I think I'm moving every one of those dancers around by pure telekinesis. Stress is weird stuff.

I wouldn't say no to a backrub. Almost ever. :-)

That's cool. I have definitely felt the same way at times, like I could just walk through walls after something really stressful is lifted off my shoulders. I've often thought it funny that I go through a horrible week at work and I can't sleep because of worry and stress and then finally get the project all done and sit up all night because I just have too much energy to sleep. :)

Well, then, consider the offer open whenever you want to accept it. Although fair warning requires that I tell you that my mood today makes it far more likely I would try to move it into the type of backrub that would get me slapped than on most other days. ;)

Exactly! Just think how much energy I'll have when the YAY really sinks in. (Better not get me to slap you; you'd fly into a wall. Telekinesis is scary stuff.) This is exhilarating.

Haha, true enough. I will behave myself at least until your high mellows out a bit. :)

And then I'll keep right on behaving myself because I'm just a big coward. But that's not my point. ;)
