And yes, I am that fat woman you have to sit by on the plane. Sorry. <\/p>\n<p>I lay in bed last night, my mind racing. I wrote about six blogs in my head (all of them? Brilliant!), and made mental lists of everything I need to do in the next couple of days. Tomorrow, for instance is Unlimited Trash Day in Kansas City. This is huge! I must find &#038; amass all the trash in the house to take advantage of this one-day opportunity! Plus, there&#8217;s laundry! Prepare for cleaning lady! The lists, they go on and on. <\/p>\n<p>One of my mental blogs was a half-hearted wish for some gigantic machine that dispensed energy (daytime) and sleeping (nighttime) pills, based on the list of needs you gave it. Average workdays &#8211; average energy, perhaps you didn&#8217;t even need a pill. Today? I need one that crams 12 hours of work into 6, gives me plenty of zip &#038; zing, and then the ability to chase it with a pill that gives me a rested night sleep in under 5 hours. So I can get up &#038; travel (pill please, one that shrinks my butt), present to the client, and then travel back home again (inflate butt upon landing, you know, for extra safety), to drive home &#038; collapse. I&#8217;m betting I won&#8217;t need a pill for sleeping on Wednesday night&#8230;..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am steeling myself for the next couple of days&#8230;.
