I guess staying at work (for now) has some good reasons.
I have free T1 Internet connection - I've mentioned this already.
I'm learning HTML web site design for free.
I have the greatest officemates.
And I just got a brand new Anne Klein watch, for free. c”,)
I'm seeing rainbows.
I'm seeing rainbows today.
And my wedding craze hasn't stopped yet 
I'm obsessed with Pink and Brown and Dots and Stripes.
I have dotted linen, striped towels, retro coffee mugs and a pink and brown LJ. Yay!
The other day I cut my hair on a whim. I was on my way home and passed by a parlor. Good, I thought, one reason to delay going home.
After the cut, I've felt my head clear up. I don't know why, but it helped me unload any excess baggage I've been grudgingly carrying. Maybe it's the new look, but I know what's wrong with me, and why was I so unhappy the past 2 weeks (if you haven't noticed it yet.)
A friend told me when I mentioned I was free of excess baggage, that I was far carrying more load a woman my age would normally do, so it was normal for me to feel burned out and that I should take it easy.
Take it easy, how many times have I been told this? Yet, I still fret, still moon over the next thing to do, get worried of all the things I wasnt able to do, and push, push myself some more.
I was washing the dishes, cooking dinner, and doing the laundry a while ago. And I was wallowing in self-pity. Great Aggie, ang sarap ng buhay mo. And then I thought of people in the States who don't have household help and still manage to be a-OK. Maybe He is just training me to be independent and get used to it, if my plans of moving out to another country will materialize. I have Edil to rub my back, massage my shoulders and give me some loving. I have Matthew who gives me sloppy little kisses.
And I still sleep, still get that occasional chocolate mousse or mango shake, still have the time to dance.
Life is good.
And I've learned that not doing the laundry for a full week can still be OK, and that we will survive
