Rest Day

Now I know what you’re thinking, spending nearly 11 hours driving from Des Moines to Denver is hardly what you would consider a rest day, but I never claimed to be normal. You have to understand, as much as I enjoy meeting people and chatting with people at something like Gnomedex, I’m an introvert, to the extreme. Carrying on conversations and hanging out with people is fun, but it’s also exhausting for me! It is just simply a lot of mental and emotional effort for me to not clam up and be shy, and it takes a lot out of me. Driving by myself for 11 hours was exactly what I needed before getting back into the “social” me tomorrow morning! I am looking forward to seeing Steve though, I haven’t seen him in a few years, it’ll be fun!
