For lack of a better title

SO tired. I didn't get up to go running as I had planned this morning. At 11:00 last night when I got in bed (surprisingly early, compared to usual), I decided that I needed the extra hour of sleep. AND, it's MISERABLY humid outside. After running in the humidity on Sunday, I came to the conclusion that HUMIDITY IS REALLY BAD. So, I slept the extra hour. Didn't help much. Now I'm debating a trip to Kiva Han to indulge in some caffeine-packed espresso drink, which will undoubtedly make me nuts. Still, it will keep me awake.
Work is dragging. Always happens on days when I know I'm leaving town. Partly, it's the anticipation of a trip to see people and of NOT HAVING TO WORK FOR A WHOLE WEEK! Partly, it's the fact that I'm a pussy-ass-freak and don't enjoying flying very much. So, nervous anticipation. Add on top of that the fact that I'm going to Chicago to see my family FOR MY MOM'S WEDDING, and you'll begin to get the picture.
I'm beginning to rethink that caffeine. That could get ugly.

Last night, we went to the Pirates game. For the first time in my 3-year history of going to games, we left before the end. It was humid and sticky, we were both exhausted, and they had conceded the game in the 4th inning. On the plus side, we got to see some of the players who may compose the future team, and the prospects look pretty good (though, as the Pirates are the farm team for the major league baseball, those prospects will come up, be developed, get to be good players, and get traded to a real team). In total this season, we have gone to 12 Pirates games. Can you guess are record??? 1 Win, 11 Losses. And while the Pirates certainly aren't good this year, this is still totally disproportionate to their record.

Has anyone else heard that Brad Pitt has Ebola?

My fingers have reached the state of blue numbness now, and I've only been here an hour. For a couple of weeks, our AC was busted. That sucked. However, now they're making up for lost time by keeping it around 55 degrees in here. Seriously, fingernails have a definite purplish tint to them now.

Is it time to go home yet?
By the way, I know BP doesn't have Ebola. Some little evil monk-like bird started that rumor.
