a whole new level of laziness

[anotheranon]

I got up about half an hour ago (for those with wonky clocks - 1:30 pm).

I had thought to go fence, but the practice is in Annapolis. In about (looks at watch) 2 minutes. Ain't gonna happen.

I have no idea why I slept so long. D. suggests weird week + flu shot, and maybe he's right, but DAMN! I've missed half the day (more than half, if you consider the sun will be setting in about 3 hours).

I did have nice dreams. I was living in Athens again, and had two boyfriends: one was older and wealthy, the other was my age, funny, and had a weird car. Minor crisis of the dream was when Mr. Funny started working for Mr. Wealthy and I tried to keep them from finding out about each other. Mr. Wealthy didn't mind; Mr. Funny was upset, but not that much.

There was also a library full of historic tomes on costume, food, and music, and I was terrified that it had burnt down - was it mine? I checked on it and it was ok.

And I walked back home barefoot over a freshly mowed lawn, trying to avoid stepping on Japanese beetles perching in the grass. Not because they were gross or scary, but just because it's mean.

I have GOT to go do something to remind myself I'm not that much of a slacker...

You're not a slacker. Your body and brain is just telling you they need downtime!! :):):)

You're not a slacker.

If you're interested, G Street is having a 25% off specialty patterns sale, the one in Rockville has a bunch of Past Patterns (including early and late Tudor stuff)and Folkwear stuff out.

VERY interested! Please tell me this wasn't a Sunday only sale!

[geekchick]

I don't think so, since it seems to have been going on for more than a week. (I was there two weekends in a row and the sale was going on both times.) They have some variety of sale going on through the 24th, although I don't know if the patterns are included for the entire advertised sale.

Slacker is the last word I'd associate with you. Sometimes, as Katie says, the body just needs down time and it enforces it itself; I once went to bed at 10:00 p.m. on a Friday and didn't wake up, to my shock, until 4:00 p.m. on Saturday. Dunno what I'd been doing to myself, but I figured I obviously needed it (even if I did feel like I'd "lost" half of my weekend). :p

Tsk, you call that lazy? Stand back, sister, I'll show you what sloth looks like! :p

Seriously, Char goes through this too once in a while; when your body decides you need extra rest, it WILL let you know one way or the other. That's not wasting time, that's basic maintenance. :)
