What a rotten day off

It was spent working. I had to give a training session that I had to be evaluated on, and I had to run an errand that really took me out of my way. And I had to visit a sick friend. I ended up nailing the evaluation, but I feel bad about how I feel having to do the other stuff. It was my day off and I wanted to spend it on the beach. Instead, I'm being asked favors by people who could have put a little effort into running their own errands or whatever.

I shouldn't feel this way, but I've been complaining about being overworked for a while. I haven't had many days off this summer and when I do get them, they're usually filled with me trying to do things that I haven't had time for. Yesterday I just wanted to lay out on the beach and relax.

This Monday coming up I have another day off. A real day off. I will make no plans for that day unless they are cool and relaxing. My sister's coming in that day with a new camera for me and some other goodies. I think I'll workout, go to the beach, have lunch somewhere (St. George's would be nice), and maybe check out the movies. I think Public Enemies will be showing.

I don't want the work to stop, really. I just want to be able to manage my free time better and use it for me and my relaxation. There isn't much summer left, and I still want some.
