Decaf

I closed out August with a week of overtime. I ended up with 65+ hours worked that one week. This past week, I closed out September in a similar fashion: A 60+ hour work week.

I'm very tired.

One of the things that happens when a bunch of us work late, is we swap stories and 2 of us were talking about big mistakes in our past. My big mistake was, naturally, Sex Caffeine.

I had a... "moment" earlier this year where it looked like my wife and SC would be working in the same department at my old office, but that never came to be, fortunately. But the thought of that made me recall that that department usually publishes an annual report with photos. I haven't seen her in years and I was curious to see how she looked.

So, off on an internet search I went and, bingo! I found the latest report.

And there she was.

And there she was not looking so good.

She looked great with short hair, but she's grown it longer, maybe just past the shoulders, but it looks feathered. Her face, though, is showing some signs of aging too. I couldn't put my finger on what had changed, though. She's had some work done, that's all I know. My eyes are too tired to figure it out.

Whatever the case, seeing was believing and I'm quite happy that "seeing" her again did nothing for me.

I'm caffeine free, decaf, for sure.
