You may or may not know, but I over think almost everything. This is just a glimpse of what goes on in my brain. I think you’ll be exhausted by it.
The issue is that need to figure out where I’m going to stay Saturday night after I get back from Russia. Now this is a dumb thing to worry about, but let me spell it out for you and maybe you’ll understand.
Decision #1: Am I going to be exhausted or am I going to be a functioning human being?
After my 24 hour plane ride back from Russia, it’s hit or miss. Sometimes I land ready to go out for a beer and enjoy the evening, and sometimes I land and go straight to bed for the night, or somewhere in the middle. I just never know what it’s going to be. I’m flying into Boston Logan, so if it’s the “go out for a beer”, I have a lot of options, and can potentially even stay at a friends. But if it’s the straight to bed option, I just need a cheap hotel near Boston, but not in Boston (because the price will be inflated).
Decision #2: Am I leaving for Iowa on Sunday afternoon or not?
If I leave for Iowa, I once again have two options. Stay in Boston and fly in and out of Logan, or go back to Connecticut and fly in and out of Bradley. I’m trying to find out if I’m supposed to be involved in the activity Monday in Iowa or not. However, I’m not sure when I’m going to find out. If I’m going to fly in and out of Bradley, then I can get a hotel anywhere between Boston and Hartford, something with the lowest price and a nice outdoor pool since it’s supposed to be 89 and sunny on Sunday. But then on the other hand.. my favorite swimsuit is at my friends house since the Fourth of July, so am I really want to go lay out? Also, I actually hate laying out because its so boring, so even if I have good intentions, this isn’t going to last for more than eight minutes, is it? If no, why am I worrying about finding a hotel with a pool?
Now, I know you’re thinking, just wait until you land to figure it out. However, I wont have internet access, and my jet lagged self is not capable of making decisions and figuring things out when I get off the plane.
Do you understand my dilemma??
This is precisely why I don’t make plans.. it’s because I never know what I’m going to feel like doing when that time rolls around.
