Road Weary

It’s an unusual day when I am desperate for a trip to end, but after this week, I am absolutely aching for this trip to be over.

I think it is because I typically travel alone, so normally I find it very relaxing, a time to enjoy some rare solitude. But this trip included three co-workers.

So we would go to the office together, spend the day in the same conference room together, go to lunch together, sit in meetings together, go to dinner together, and then drive back to the hotel together.

And then the next day, we would just start all over again.

For as much as I hate the isolation of working from home, I definitely feel my inner introvert throwing a tantrum at the moment.

I can’t recall the last time a five day trip felt this long or exhausting.
