Life is very full for me right now.

I never knew that working 40 hours a week, doing six hours of graduate work, and commuting an hour each way to school would drain me so much. But I am happy. The love of my life has returned to me from Chicago, hopefully to stay--I have a car, a house, a job, graduate classes in a subject I enjoy, loans in deferment, friends, and love.

So, even though the day started before 8am and it's 6:15 with four more hours of work, I feel very blessed. And tired.
