I worked Monday night, and then came home so tired that I set my alarm all wrong. How I got up in time was beyond me, as I got up two hours before the set time - and then realized that I should have gotten up then anyway! I am not sure how I did it...but I was on the road to Mt Pleasant to the Soaring Eagle Casino to attend an ENA conference - you know, for ED nurses and EMS personnel to learn as well as network and all those other buzz words...
I had a good time, as well as learned a lot too. Like even after having two glasses of wine, and a few margaritas (from a box no less!) I can still play Eureka. I did really well, even though I hadn't played in a while, but I guess the wine helped, or the lack of sleep - but really, I held my own - and M Most and I did really well beating the two Marks. It's all in the count - and I wasn't in Vegas, so card counting isn't illegal, and we weren't gambling - LS was and she won big...but I digress...
I learned a lot of good things, met up with all kinds of old friends, met some new ones and really had a nice time. I missed my husband, my friend, my soul mate - he stayed home with the puppies - who acted like maniacs when I came in the door. I also had dinner with my wonderful niece on Tuesday night, played video poker before the drunken Eureka game, and really bonded with her - she graduates from CMU on Saturday. She is such a sweetie.
I also got the best idea yet, for another book. I will spend the rest of the night putting the thoughts down on paper, and tomorrow work on 'Then Again' that I really need to finish... I really need to do it, I really need to finish it, I really need to...oh, a new idea is so much more fun, but I really need to finish that book...I will do it!!! Tomorrow, tomorrow I will do it! Maybe I should write about procrastination, since I am really doing a good a job of it on my own...
