Pasta and Chocolate

I had somewhat of a frustrating evening, long, and, because of the exhaustion from last night's lack of sleep, emotional.

I made a quick trip to the grocery store tonight, and, while contemplating what to pack for lunches this week, spotted some pasta that drew my attention (spinach and cheese ravioli). A quick trip to the aisle with sauces, picked up some sun-dried tomato pesto, and at the check-out stand a Kit-Kat bar, and headed for home. Some quick cooking left me with a satisfying meal, so I pulled on my pygamas, curled up in my chair with the plate of pasta, and watched an episode of Gray's Anatomy on my laptop.

This was exactly what was needed, for I had hit the point in exhaustion where everything makes me want to cry, and I needed the quiet, the rich food, the chocolate, and the little bit of melodrama to relax my brain and chill out for a while.

And, with that, I'm off to bed. I'm tired, work promises to continue at a dizzying pace this week, and I'd like to read a bit before making yet another attempt at sleep (with prayer first this time!) See you all tomorrow or the next day!
