One of my favorite things about all the traveling that I do is all the new people I get to meet and the best way to meet people is the hotel bar. Or really, any bar at any restaurant, but a sushi bar is often best, after the bar in a hotel. It's where the business travelers sit, where people are ready and willing to talk to you. Being a single woman has pros and cons; people often want to talk to you but intention isn't always clear. Not that it matters. A little daily flirting is necessary and beautiful in this life.
I am so tired in this new job that I find myself ordering room service, something I have never done before with any regularity. I woke at 4:30 this morning, caught a 7-somethingam flight. I worked all day, public eye, sparkling. Back to my room at 8pm, pst. I ran a bath with one hand, put a girlfriend on speaker with the other. I ordered the salmon and two glasses of pinot. I'm so tired.
I think of it though and wonder- tell me of a life where I'm not tired. What then, am I well-rested and under-stimulated? I would rather challenge myself mentally and physically.
I would also rather starve free than live a fat slave.
I'll wake up tomorrow and do it again. I need to be grateful for everything, especially if it's challenging. Challenge me, make me consider my options, please.
Bedtime now and I have earned it.
Alohazzzzz
