This morning I woke up WAY too early.

This morning was the first of two sims where I will "backseat" someone else being the traj*officer, the first orbit position I'm training for (think of it like fdo's assistant). Then, I will start simming on my own (well, with lots and lots and lots of help). At various times during the 1.5 hours before and the 7 hours during the sim, I experienced the following (in no particular order): intrigue, drinking from a fire house, eagerness to just do things myself because I don't learn very well from just watching, confusion, enlightenment at learning why things are done a certain way, and tiredness. Does that sum things up or what? And that was just my first sim of watching someone else do all the work.

So, I left work early in an attempt to have some quiet downtime by myself at home. When I arrived, Cari was already home watching TV, and Nick came in shortly thereafter. So much for that.
