I'm tired.

This in itself is not news, and taken in context is to be expected. But to me, at this moment, it is overwhelmingly important, top of my list.

Tired.

What do I expect? The baby woke up at 6:30, I got up because after all, that's why I'm at my sister's house: to help with the kids. I stayed up, because everyone else was up and I couldn't get no peace.

I've been thinking too much lately, too many issues to focus on so instead I scan them all repeatedly, tiredly running through the outline. I need to stop. I need to get some rest, take off a week of work and focus on me. Short of the week's leave, I should unplug all the phones and tell my family I AM NOT AVAILABLE.

Aight. I think that's what I'll do.

I'm tired.


And with this node, I pronounce thee level 6.
