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. <\/p>\n
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. <\/p>\n
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. <\/p>\n
I'll be there permanently as of saturday. That's going to be an adventure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
