\"gf\"<\/a>I can get dressed up go out and swing till three am and then
\nLie down at five, jump up at six
\nAnd start all over again\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

Although granted, I can\u2019t do that as often as I used to. There are times the job does remind me that much as I may wish otherwise \u2013 I\u2019m not 22 anymore\u2026but, as Silv reminds me fairly consistently, I\u2019m also not dead\u2026so I\u2019m basically able to keep up with myself.<\/p>\n

Which is a good thing, because otherwise embark days would probably kill me. Especially on this run, as they are the day before a sea day\u2026and a sea day is 10 hours. Embark day may start late, but it runs long, and it doesn\u2019t really stop\u2026<\/p>\n

Of course, I have the option of not playing \u2018Kitten to the \u2018Cats\u2026I could not go to the welcome aboard set\u2026but this is the first time in a week we\u2019ve actually had a full band (for the last little while we\u2019ve been working without a guitar player, which is tough, because the \u2018Cats are a guitar driven band); and I wasn\u2019t going to miss the first time my boys got to play with a full sound. Fortunately for us the new guitar player is awesome. Amras walked off stage last night with a grin on his face for the first time in days\u2026<\/p>\n

And for the first time in a while I was simply able to plug into the energy in the room and feel my shoulders shift into being relaxed. Not that I\u2019m tense these days, quite the opposite \u2013 being back on the regular rotation is a breath of fresh air after the stress of the flagship, eating three meals a day (and ravenous much of the time), and sleeping like a baby straight through the night \u2013 tense is not really a word in my vocabulary right now. But none the less, it\u2019s nice to get the little extra<\/em> energy boost.<\/p>\n

Especially if it\u2019s midnight and 7am comes awfully early.<\/p>\n

And in the morning you shift from cheering section to hair-pinned-back-pencil-behind-the-ear tech girl\u2026I sometimes wonder how I manage to keep my worlds relatively separate (emphasis on the relatively, complete separation is just impossible out here).<\/p>\n

Buuut\u2026it\u2019s worth it. After all, you do only live once (well\u2026maybe), and all that\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
