One of those days.

I need to go to bed early tonight.

Today was just one of those days.

Went to Itaza for the second day of the ISPA conference (Illinois school psychologist association). The lectures were really informative and good to hear, but I have been so exhausted this week that it was a bit of a struggle to pay complete attention. I haven't been sleeping the best this past week. It's also hard to readjust to the daily grind after vacation. I also think I'm having to readjust to being away from home and from everyone I love. It's hard being away on days when things are getting to you and you just want to look around and see someone you love and who loves you back rather than all these stupid strangers around you who couldn't care less about you.

And the snow and cold are total bummers too.

So I was walking around today feeling completely out of it and I'm going to be honest, pretty much hating every single person I saw for no reason. I love Chicago except on days when I feel like this. On those kind of days, I hate everything about Chicago. I hate the dirty stupid bus, I hate bums begging me for money more than usual, I hate people who walk slow, I hate people who honk, I hate people who get in my way, I hate the dirty stinking snow, I hate weird guys who look at you funny in Target, I hate the high prices.

And my computer cord is all chewed up by the cats and I went to apple and they tell me my appointment was cancelled because I was a little late. I have to take time out of my life to go again tomorrow and hope I can get a cord for free.

Thank God for a good run. And now I need a good night's sleep.
