Goodness, getting up early will do that to you. I am exhausted.<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t really want to do two rambling blog posts in a row. I try to vary shit like that so that I don&#8217;t annoy people or whatever. Try to write &#8220;content&#8221; sometimes too. But I can&#8217;t seem to get started on anything, and the best solution to that is to write. I know this to be true. I told my students that the other day, probably.<\/p>\n<p>Basically what&#8217;s going on is that Aesa just booked a flight to visit me next week. This is insane. I mean, it&#8217;s insane in a nice way, and it&#8217;ll be a nice if at least at the beginning awkward time. I&#8217;m looking forward to it, totally. That&#8217;s a VERY GOOD THING. But it still, at this moment, seems unreal. It was so out of nowhere. It&#8217;s something that, if I wanted to do it, I&#8217;d worry and plan for weeks to be able to do it, and even then, I might decide it wasn&#8217;t &#8220;optimal.&#8221; He just went for it. I hope I&#8217;m as special as he thinks, so it&#8217;s worth it for him.<\/p>\n<p>Really, though, now I&#8217;m worrying about what I need to plan. What do we do? Do I plan activities? Meals out? Meals in? How am I going to take care of my teaching duties with him here distracting me? Do I need to work very far ahead? All these are things that I would have planned far in advance usually, but all this just kind of happened. And now that it&#8217;s locked in, I can start freaking out about it, I suppose.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m just not a spontaneous person in general, I don&#8217;t think. I mean, I can speak that way. I can interact with people socially that way. But outside of just talking, such things worry me. It&#8217;s an unsure situation. I don&#8217;t know the outcome. That&#8217;s the fun of it all, I guess, but I just rarely find it that way. I want to feel the path beneath me.<\/p>\n<p>But then again, if I had waited, and planned forever for a &#8220;perfect&#8221; moment, this nice thing that&#8217;s happening wouldn&#8217;t have happened. I&#8217;d have worried about asking Brer about it, and worried about setting it up&#8230; instead we just picked a date that looked okay in my work schedule, and just did it. And now it&#8217;s going to happen.<\/p>\n<p>Best prepare to enjoy it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s so weird that this seems so late now, but it does.
