Desynchronosis is what I have

It's been about a week since I've left Texas for the second time for Japan. I thought that having a whole day to recoop would be sufficient enough, but my body definitely told me otherwise today.

With all the festivities in the H the past week, I wasn't able to sleep from all the excitement. I wanted to maximize my time there, so I would go to bed super late and wake up somewhat early the next day. Well, early for my norm anyway. And each minute was spent wonderfully with all my loved ones who I miss even more now that I'm back in Yokohama. It's so strange. I didn't really feel this homesickness before my trip back home, but waking up Sunday morning with a heinous hangover slash drunkeness plus the aching pain in my legs that was far worse than after climbing up Mt. Takao, I was definitely not physically or mentally ready to hop on a plane back to the Shinyoko.

This work week wasn't even a five day week, but I was barely able to survive after three days of work. I found myself extremely tired and exhausted by the end of each day, but I'm very good at keeping a big smile on my face and kept on truckin'. Well, until this morning hit me. My body is yelling at me to make up my damn mind. Am I supposed to be awake? Am I supposed to be stuffing my face with food? Am I supposed to be functioning now? I honestly have no idea myself. It's almost 6 pm, and my head feels like I pulled an all-nighter, and I haven't eaten a single meal today. I woke up early in the morning feeling like poopoo. Thought a good shower or a little snack would help, but I thought wrong. Went back to sleep and woke up at 3 pm. My body is definitely out of whack!

When will I be normal again? This whole 15 hour time difference flippy-floppiness is not making my body feel so cute...

And now pictures of not Japan, but of the people who I miss oh so dearly now that I am back in Japan. I can't wait until March is here. March and April is filled with lots of visitors coming from over yonder.
