I made it home yesterday around 2 in the afternoon. I was exhausted! I had some sensory overload issues, suddenly I can understand everything that is going on around me. It's a bit strange. But I had a couple of Dr. Peppers and a spicy chicken sandwich from Wendy's so things are looking good!

It's funny, I got so used to living without some convenience. I was talking to Angela on the phone when I heard this awful beeping in my ear and thought we had been disconnected, until I realized it was call waiting. Something I've had since high school and I forgot what it was in a year. Amazing!

My niece and nephew have latched on to me permanently. I think they will have to be surgically removed. I went to bed at 8.30 last night after being awake for 22 hours. And guess what? I woke up at 4 am after my usual 7 hours sleep. So I read a book and listened to some CDs until 7 this morning until I couldn't take it anymore and had to take a shower! Then my mom made me pancakes. I haven't had any this whole year. Yummy. Well, today will be busy: Lunch with Ducki, definitely a nap, and welcome home party this evening. Whew!

Happy 4th!
