Sometimes you know know what you need until you get it.

a much needed break

Finally some down time. I can do those things I never take the time to do..... I called a couple people tonight.... I even made some phone calls to Central Asia to talk to my host brother Lyosha (I now know it is 5:55am there) oops.

I've been emailing people and stuff... communicating... ya know.

I dont know why but I leave very little down time for myself. And if I foresee down time, I'll make plans.

It is so great when you can have down time with other people around. (where you dont feel like you have to entertain them, or them you.) you just feel comfortable to do the things you got to do... with them around. I love my parents.
