I'm tired

“I’m tired. So tired. I’m pooped.” to quote Madeline Kane from Blazing Saddles. At least it was something like that. Of course her reasons for being tired were completely different from my reasons.

We finally got some great weather, and I didn’t even have to sacrifice a virgin. All that sun got me going on projects, and entertaining, so the weekend was busy and lots of fun! Think homemade guacamole with chips, and margaritas on the patio with friends and family. Building a box for a raised vegetable garden, and starting seeds. Not to mention the cleaning and sprucing up.

As fun as the weekend was, the week has been unfun. (I know that’s not really a word. Hello, spell check is having fits.) Whiny citizens who have had a year to let their feelings be known have suddenly decided to complain to commissioners instead of coming to our team. Nothing can mess up a public works project, and waste money like an elected official getting involved. It’s enough to make you envy working for the postal service where they know how to make their frustrations understood by everyone.

So, I’m tired! I need a vacation, but there’s just too much work! I need an assistant, but there’s no money. I need more sun, but the clouds are moving back in. I need a good physical release, something on the order of boxing, or involving the use of assault rifles, but neither are really my style. A little sex, or a lot, wouldn’t be bad either, but alas no partner at the moment. Instead, I’m heading home and tonight is bible study. Not looking like I’m going to grt much relief there.
