It's good to be wanted, right?

My boss is sending me to visit a supplier next week.
It's 800 miles away and I need to spend a whole day there.
But, I can't spend the day before traveling because he "needs me in the office too much to have me out 2 days".
I guess that's good.
But, it means I've got to work one morning, drive to Logan, get there at 9 at night, spend all the next day there, and fly back to get home (hopefully) before midnight and go to work the next day.
It's good to be wanted. Right?
It is. But, it is also tiring.
