After the earthquake, I had over a month of nothingness. I could have faded into oblivion and I don't think I would have even realised. No Uni, no work, no house, no cat. No nothing.
But I sure made the most of it, travelling back and forth all over the country. Visiting old friends, making new ones and playing possum in a small, low tree (don't ask....). Wanaka, Dunedin, Kaiteri (almost), things I had meant to do for years.
But for all that complaining that this long, unexpected vacaction was dragging on, with nothing to do and no worries on my mind, it all caught up eventually.
Back at Uni, at work, I have a cat, a house. (Lucky me, I know). Now its stress. Trying to fit in St Paddy's celebration (read: fight with short, blonde chicks - not at all our fault, making friends with friends couch surfers, facebook hacking, intoxicated biking, long bar lines), friends parties (scrumpy hands, dancing) on top of a HECTIC work schedule and an almost impossible Uni work load (despite doing only two papers this semester, um helllooo??).
Back to normal? Umm no.
