I am giving up. This is my third straight day of tension headache. I am taking an aspirin at this very moment and I hope to have time to pop into the nails place to get a quick back rub before going to work. It better get better before my mood sharply deteriorates and there's hell to pay.
My sister-in-law and mother-in-law are arriving tomorrow from Madrid and they still have no hotel reservation. This is midtown NYC right in the middle of the UN General Assembly. Hotel rooms are not easy to come by.
My niece is coming to town tomorrow too, and staying with me until Sunday. Jose, her boyfriend, is coming on Saturday. They will both move to the Y on Sunday.
And on Sunday JP is coming, with his cousin and his cousin's child. They are all staying with me.
I don't care what else happens but tomorrow night, once I am done at work, I am marching straight to the nearest bar to unwind.
Day before yesterday I walked home from work at 12.30 AM, stopped at a deli, bought myself a balanced meal consisting of an ice-cream and a beer and came home. I never drank the beer. There is something profoundly sad about a middle-aged woman drinking beer at home alone. All that's missing is cats and then I might as well shoot myself.
In a bizarre way I must admit I am enjoying doing the journal at work. It sure kills my social life and that I hate but on the other hand it keeps me so busy I hardly have time to think about anything else which, given the circumstances, it's a blessing. And the work itself is kinda cool. For a geek like me, that is.

Yeah! Got a hotel room!
