En attendant. . .

Just waiting . . . and it kills me. Why am I so bad at waiting? Impatience. I'd rather be in motion than waiting for motion. Even if it actually ends up taking longer, it's better to be seeing new things than hanging out in the same spot too long.

I am not looking forward to going back to work. The technicians are talking about unionizing, and there is definitely tension in the work place. I'm not exactly sure what brought this all about, but moral has been low for quite some time. I think that I really do need to figure out a new place to be. Perhaps if I can convince Bob to actually start a business we can just work together. But what? And where?

Here I sit in the lounge listening to the piano bar piano playing Andrew Lloyd Weber show tunes and songs reminiscent of old movies like Casablanca. It's really not a bad place to be waiting, and yet I am anxious. Ready to go, and yet not going.

The story about Geli was great Bobo! She's so funny - and Ben so obedient! I am impressed. You must really have been working with them these last few weeks. I am excited to get back into the family groove.

In some ways being away from home for work makes work much more easy - I have learned why it is that the field of science wants people to move around so much - so they have no ties and can dedicate the time they normally would to family, friends and home life to work - but I am tired of work, and am ready to be with people I love. Just doing yard work, or taking a walk or watching T.V., or especially cooking a nice meal, watching a good movie, and cuddling up on the couch. And I am almost there. But I am not there yet. I am waiting.

Anyway, next post will be from Fort Collins - actually, this will probably be the last post - I am just a visiting poster on Bobo's site. . .
