Depends on how tiring the day was

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 3 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (1 children)

Even getting back late from a business trip, the first night (or whatevers hours are left) are the best part
I'm happy to be at home and I'm finished for the day

The days afterwards can even be kinda work free (only doing minor things like accounting and stupid shit like that), but if the stress falls away, I'm usually getting sick and the body demands it's time to recover
First night though is one of celebration

I'm talking tiring physically, doing manual labour and such in addition to just being tired tired. Don't get to enjoy the first night much if it is lights out once you get home

My business trips aren't that fancy

I am physically exhausted after spending some weeks, practically without a free day, in a fucking warehouse

I'm always just so happy to be home again and have all the stuff I've wanted to do, that I dreamed up during suffering on site.
But I'm too exhausted to actually do anything...

Still, the first night is always the best

Came home last time, after working with a fever/flu again, and just wanted to drop dead.
But the euphoria of being home again keeps me going for the first night.
Which pretty much means, I'll have a few beers and talk with my wife.
Can't do anything reasonable, but I really enjoy those few hours
