blissful sleep

there's nothing i want to do more right now than to sleep. to be tucked warmly in my soft bed and to curl up amidst fluffy pillows. to have the curtains drawn and the room dim. to have within reach a book, a glass of water, an iPod and the TV remote. just in case i need some activity in between dreams.

i was bracing myself for a quiet week. and now jacob's being all attentive again. yesterday he caught me in the middle of supermarket shopping and i brightened up like sunshine.

last sunday he came over to fix my home theater and ended up hanging out until 230AM.

i have this super major presentation tomorrow and i wish i could skip it, fast forward to the next day.

i'm going back to work today after two days of sudden sick leaves. i feel quite guilty about it. about the sudden leaves. i'm entitled to them. but a superwoman does not take sudden sick leaves. especially if she is known to be particular about people suddenly not showing up. not that there was anything major at stake. just a couple of fieldwork sessions, and maybe a couple of quite important meetings. my being gone just required more time from the people left behind, but nothing that demanded long extra work hours. certainly nothing like what i had to take on the past few weeks. anyway.

i really want to sleep some more.
