This trip makes me feel as if I would be only half alive when I go back to the Philippines.

I've been here 2 weeks and it has been already the norm that I am at the office before 8AM, and will go out of the office around 8PM.  I don't see the sun that much since the days are getting shorter and shorter as I speak.  The temperature is dropping from the high 90's when I got here, to today's 70's which makes it hard for me since I get easily cold.  I eat fast food most of the time since I don't have time to cook and I am mostly tired when I get home.  I tell ya, using the brain will make you tired.

My activities lined up for this weekend and next weekend is enough to scare the living day lights out of me.  I'll be going on a 60mi bike ride on Saturday, and to SFO on Sunday.  The next weekend, I'll be camping in Yosemite.  I haven't had any chance to shop for anything since the shops around here close pretty early.  Good luck to me finding pasalubong for my family!  Good luck to me surviving camping and the bike ride!

I'm missing my husband terribly.  We won't even be together on our birthday.  Good thing they've been keeping me busy at work, I don't have time to think about him during the day.  But at night time, when it gets really cold, I feel alone.  Alone to the point that I know he'd get a hoot out of the adventures that I'll be going to, and knowing that everything will all the more be enjoyable if he were around.  Talking to him lifts up my spirits but only enough to last me until the next phone call.

I'm whining.  And I need to get back to work.
