after thoughts

Don't live the American dream. Live your dream.

Lazy Saturday

I chose not to go anywhere today.

When I woke at 4:30, I had it in my mind to go to the gym, just a I’ve done all week.   The gym doesn’t open till 7am on weekends, so I went back to sleep.

I woke at 6.
My legs felt achy.  I really don’t know if they are really achy or if it was just something in my head.    Either way, instead of getting ready to go, I went back to sleep.

I woke at 7:30 and heard voices coming from the kitchen.
That means that sneaking out while wearing workout clothes wasn’t a good idea.   I guess I could, but would probably be facing a lot of worried looks later.

Instead, I considered going downtown or to a local park and walking around for three or four hours while catching ‘mons.   Yeah, no.   I went back to sleep.

And now, it’s just a little after three.
I haven’t left the house and rarely left my room.  I’m just dozing in and out.   I haven’t tried to really play games, watch TV… nothing.   I’m keeping up on my grading, of course, but otherwise — just here.

There were times when I would simply have died to have a day like this to read, or knit, or write.  Just to be like a lizard and curl up in the sunshine.

But, no.  Not today.   I’m fairly useless outside of drinking Diet Mountain Dew and taking little naps.

This is so unlike me.
I don’t know how people who do this all the time can stand it.    I’d go even more insane than what I actually am.
