It was much more fun living on the road
I'm back, sort of.
Now that I have this job caring for my grandmother at night, I ought to be able to get on the internet from ten o'clock to about eleven every night for elf playing/chatting and lj/myspace checking purposes. This, naturally, is necessary for sanity. The only problem is that caring for my grandma is a bit like having a baby. I sleep with one ear open for the shuffling of feet down the hall; then I have to stay awake until I hear her shuffle back to bed safely--about three or four times a night. Then, I stumble out of bed at seven, get her breakfast, get myself dressed and washed, and head out to Katy. I take Larry to the coffeehouse, do homeschool with the kiddo till three, put designs on ocarinas and do housework until six, pick up Larry, make dinner, clean up, then drive back out to my grandma's house to do it all again. I'm so dog silly tired that I'm an incoherent mess.
Being a responsible adult is highly overrated.
But hey, I'm here, and pretty soon I'll get used to being a normal person with a real job. Besides, indoor plumbing is kinda cool, no? :D
