"Lost, on a painted sky, where the clouds are hung for the poets eye..." Neal Diamond
That song is on the Jonathan Livingston Seagull soundtrack and I have no idea why it is floating around inside my mind tonight. Perhaps because it is such a beautiful evening here in California. Our rain storm seems to have passed through and the evening has been sunny and warm. I am currently sitting in the living room watching an episode of "Castle" and inhaling the fresh air through the open patio door.
It was a long day at work. Actually, yesterday was the long day - I worked about fifteen hours in total, a full day and then a full evening due to a technical glitch on one of the systems that I had to hand hold into the evening. Fortunately the issue was resolved and it did not cascade into the next day.
I had a great conversation with TR and snuggled deep into bed. Unfortunately, I didn't sleep well - I tossed and turned, got up and paced about a couple of times, and then finally fell asleep and slept for about five hours. The office was busy today, so the time passed quickly and I made some good headway and then tonight, I skated home into this beautiful evening and I am watching the clock make that slow sweep until nightfall. I may have one of those evenings where I have to struggle to stay awake, least I go to sleep too early - but, I suspect I could go to sleep very easy.
I do hope to manage to stay awake for a while at least - long enough to watch this episode of Castle, then perhaps some time with TR, and finally a chance to curl up and read myself to sleep. It seems strange, but I have already worked 23 hours in two days. Whew, no wonder I am sitting here, tired and waiting for the night to wind down.
