teleporter or a time machine

Reading my post from yesterday, I have to admit that it sounds as if I'd had some awful day. Granted, I did have to wake up a full two and a half hours earlier than normal.

I love sleeping in the morning. I love slowly waking up and crawling back under the covers when the room's a little too cold to face quite yet. Getting out of bed too early certainly starts the day off a bit harshly, but it wasn't like I had to go out and dig ditches. Just a normal work day with minimal stress.

Had nice conversations with both Dad and Dude in the evening. G made a tasty dinner. Tivo entertained.

So why was I such a grump at 10:30 last night? Tiredness surely played a role, but I also feel like I'm frazzled lately. Trying too hard to satisfy too many different priorities and allowing too many of them to be given only cursory attention. I had to call Dad while walking to the Muni because I worked too late and didn't want to keep G waiting any longer. Then Dude and G had to share me for an hour while I tried to spend time with both of them at once. (Hard to do when one's on the phone and there's no speaker function.) I just want to get everyone in the same room for tea and crumpets...or scones, because not everyone likes crumpets...and maybe some of those little cucumber sandwhiches because they sound yummy and some others with jam because those really are yummy so we can eat them while contempling the cucumber ones... Oops, getting tired again.

But I have realzied that one of the only times I don't have people sharing my attention is the time I spend at work. It seems a bit odd that the people I care about most have to lose out to a corporate entity.

I need a teleporter or a time machine or something.
