Sleepy, low-motivation day

Water on Autumn Leaf

Normally, I’m on the run. All day. Every day. Run. Run. Run.

Today, I’m a bit of a space cadet.

It could be the weather. (It’s chilly and rainy in Charlotte.) It could be a decided lack of sleep, or the fact that our thermostat still thinks it’s summer. Maybe I just hit the wall.

It’s not like I haven’t gotten anything done today, that wouldn’t be fair to say. I’ve gotten stuff done. In fact, I’m actually doing quite well as far as deadlines are concerned. But, today, I also did something I haven’t done in a long time: I played. Just a little, but I did. And, it felt great.

Now I’m sitting here, sucking on a snickerdoodle roast from my favorite coffee shop like it should have a nipple on it … and having a difficult time even finishing this sentence, quite frankly. Please, lawd, don’t hold up anything that sparkles, I’ll loose my train of thought again.

But, I’ve got to get in gear. I need to write five articles before I rest. Busy day tomorrow.
