I didn't sleep well at all last night, and neither did Katy. And no, not for that reason. In my case, it was because I couldn't get comfortable because I was either bumping into the wall or Katy's elbow; in her case it was because I was fidgeting too much. I couldn't fall asleep last night. I hate that feeling, when you toss and turn and toss and turn and think that hours have past, only to look at the clock and notice that only 4 minutes have gone by. I wasn't sleepy at all when I went to bed – Katy and I are on different schedules right now because of her work – and I think that that was the biggest culprit. Katy, on the other hand, was beat. She fell asleep at 9:30. I also had to break out the earplugs for the first time last night, though that only usually happens when she's really tired or has a cold.
I think I didn't help matters this morning when I didn't give her a kiss when she was about to leave for work. In my defense, my brain wasn't working, but still, that's not an excuse.
Day went better though. Katy's dad and I drove up to cambridge to deliver my groceries, suitcases and the last of the kitchen stuff to the apartment. I also went to the EMBL to fill in paperwork for my bank account, which I should have by the middle of next week or so. While I was there, I took the opportunity to talk to my supervisor and the people I'd be working with. They seem like a good bunch. I'm actually really excited to get working there. I'm anxious to get my hands elbow-deep in code and technologies I don't know much about and get back to using my brain instead of letting it rot, dealing with IBM. The campus looks really nice too – it even has a lake on it – but it's in the middle of friggin nowhere.
I'll be there permanently as of saturday. That's going to be an adventure.
My sleeping has been iffy since the accident and I can relate :(
Happy to hear you're excited about work :) I can't imagine how overwhelming all this must be right now.
and thank you very much for the tea *hugs*

Now before others get the wrong impression, I only had the tea in my posession for 6 days before I handed it over.

Scarily enough, I still have one left. *And* I gave one to my mum.

Yay for you. I had one the other night when I went to mum's for dinner.
Oh, that reminds me…. she was wondering if ever you feel the need to send anything this way, if you could include some Twiglets. Tree bark dipped in marmite… yummy *gags*
