Trying to alter my schedule

So, I'm back in California again. I'm staying at a "hotel" with Jeff down in Long Beach and trying to adjust to staying up late. It hasn't been working out so well. Part of the problem is that there is only so much entertainment I can choke down in one day, and what else is there to do on vacation? I'm used to a very particular structure to my day and throwing that to the wind for two solid weeks is a bit stressful. I had Jeff bring me some computer games for a change of distraction. He's at work right now. It really is great to be together again. It's strange the things you take for granted: having someone to wake up to and look at every day, someone who can share all your weird thoughts and make you laugh, an extra set of hands, someone telling you that you look nice. I miss all those things and more when he's not around. But anyway, we're having a good time and the weather is perfect. It's strange not to have to wear a coat when I go outside. Portland has been in the low 50s, high 40s since Halloween so I'm enjoying all the sun I can get. More later.
