My whole body aches from too much work and not nearly enough sleep. That doesn't even account for the heavy heart I'm carrying around all day and the head to match.
At the end of a day that started nineteen hours ago, every part of me just wanted to cry driving home tonight. Mentally, physically, emotionally, and that I-wish-I-could-blink-my-eyes-and-be-in-bed-already feeling that wouldn't negate the thirty minute drive still ahead of me.
I called my sister, Lindsay, hoping she might pass the drive. Voicemail. I turned on the radio, hoping it might energize my drive, and then heard that song I can't listen to with out crying, and swatted the dial like a fly. I cracked my window for some air and caught a glimpse of the moon.
It looked so calm and bright that it just radiated warmth and serenity. It took me all day, but I found a reason to smile.
