The Proverbial Jackpot

Current Mood:
CC is listening to: Everything--Michael Buble (Call Me Irresponsible)

Ah, jetlag. Amazing how it just DRAINS you.

It hit me more strongly coming back than it did going over. I was up at 2am yesterday morning, forced myself to sleep from 4am-6am, and then at noon it hit me. You couldn't pay me to keep my eyes open. So I took a nap until 2pm and then I had to get up because Steve and I had to run an errand.

We came back an hour later and I was STILL dragging. Steve kept telling me to try and stay awake, because if I slept now I'd be awake all night and it'll make things worse. I tried, I really did, but I couldn't. So I fell asleep on the couch and finally at 5:30pm (yes, 5:30) Steve helped me to bed.

Woke up at 9pm, just like he predicted. I knew he had an early day tomorrow, so I thought I'd get up and spend some time with him since I spent most of my day sleeping.

I walk out into the living room and what do I see?

He's unpacked all my suitcases for me (and I brought two BIG ones back). He's taken out every article of clothing and laid them out nice and neat, categorized by type. He's grouped all the work stuff together and all the personal stuff together. The suitcases are gone: he put them back in the closet for me.

"Well, it was dinnertime but I wasn't hungry yet and I couldn't very well let you live out of a suitcase for the next few days." He knows me so well--I would've lived out of that suitcase until I used up all the clothes I took with me.

I'm looking at him in amazement, thinking, "I hit the jackpot with this man, I really did."
