So here I am sitting in yet another hotel room. Day 1 of a 5 day week out of town for work. I will say this is one of the more run down hotels I have stayed in in a while. The ONLY redeeming quality is that the hotel has a decent work out room.
As I sit here wallering in self pity (like you couldn't tell) I think about my husband and my dogs sleeping in my comfy bed at home. Oh yeah, he lets the dogs sleep with him while I am away. They are WAY WAY spoiled. Any way.... as I am thinking of them I am reminded of the days that I LOVED to travel for work and how I CHERISHED staying in hotels where I didn't have to clean up after myself or care how much energy I was using up by leaving all the lights on during the day. But times have changed, my priorities have changed. This is the first year of my marriage and I feel that I am missing out. I talk with my husband at least 3 times a day when I am away but it is not the same as being there with him. I am feeling like I have lost my way in my career. I love what I do for a living but I love my husband more. I have never thought about an alternative career. I have no idea what other jobs might interest me but what I do know is that I am no longer happy having to be away from my husband week after week. I also know that this feeling will only get worse if we have kids! I sure wish someone would come into my life and magically tell me what I should be doing. I am secretly waiting for a sign from God as to what the perfect job for me would be. I sure hope he sends that sign soon!
Alas, until then I will have to be content sitting in my hotel room watching Gossip Girl. YES..... I watch Gossip Girl and occasionally the new 90210.

Did you hear that a (drunk) guy fell off of the sixth floor walkway into the lobby below at the hotel where you had your wedding reception?
You guys were lucky! ;)
