Diary 11/27

I am currently working on the next S&S assignment. You can imagine my joy....(or maybe not)

It has been a loooong week. I'll start at the beginning:

Monday, I had to work late. People who were unable to take the test on Monday were given the option of Wednesday (WT...?!?!?! The day before Thanksgiving? The busiest travel day of the year? Who thinks of these things?) Long story short I requested extra time past the midnight deadline and opted to take the test. I finished the test around 1 am.

There is no rest for the wicked. That same evening/morning, I also needed to complete my White Paper. Though the assignment was extended to Thanksgiving day(Again, WT...?!?!) I opted to complete it by the initial deadline. I finally completed a draft that I was reasonably satisfied with and submitted it at 2:30am.

I went to sleep and got up 2 (yes two) hours later to get to the airport by6 am to catch my plane to see family in Massachusetts . I was so tired but unable to sleep on the plane. I tried to sleep that evening but my sisters (adorable) dog kept walking over my head. I also tried to sleep on the four hour drive to NYC to meet up with the remainder of the family but I'm obviously the only one able to navigate/understand GPS directions (ARG!!!!!)

Of course I was unable to sleep all of Wednesday into Thursday because family were coming in all times of the day and night so a mini party was going on.

I slept all day Thursday. I did not even eat Thanksgiving dinner with the family. They couldn't wake me up. I was dead to the world.

Today, I got up and ate a piece of fruit for breakfast then went back to sleep. I am finally, this late afternoon, awake and ready to eat. Thankfully, they saved me all of my favorite foods.
Family. You've got to love them :o)

I am so glad I did those assignments prior to this weekend. Hopefully my grades will reflect the dedication, effort and time.

TTYL. I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving holiday!
