Just A Sad Day, Sometimes Just Need To Rest

I knew I should have gotten out today, but I just couldn’t get out of my own way. All I really wanted to do today was go back to sleep.

I was up early, around 6. I did some stretches, I had my cereal and looked at email, deleting junk mail, reading some news. I got very sleepy and went back to bed.

I knew I should have gotten out today. But some part of me just wanted to rest.

I got up and had some lunch. It was rainy in the morning, then the sun came out, then it got cloudy and overcast again. I went back to sleep.

I knew I should have gotten out today.

I listened to some music that made me sad. I guess it helped get the sadness out. I got the mail. I paid a couple of bills online. I listened to billy joel, john legend, and…cant think of his name…. I give you all all all all of me, you give me all all all all of you……. More sad….. the sun came out and made things bright and sharp and clear.

I knew I should have gotten out today.
