Mary does not have mono


... so why do I have such a hard time getting up? Why do I feel like I'm going to pass out from exhaustion throughout the day? Must be the winter doldrums. Boo. This is actually me at work last Thursday, but I'm sure I could've taken the exact same picture today. I was wearing the same scrub top and everything. I was tardy for work today as I woke up at 8:08 with my clock radio playing softly in the background. I ocassionally feel like my life is falling apart and this morning was one of those times. Everyone was understanding and no one gave me a hard time about it, but I still felt awful that I showed up so late. It's not my way.

Nick & I went out for dinner at Theo & Stacey's tonight. I felt like family dining. Sometimes I love family dining because there are no expectations or judging. You just show up as you are and sit there eating hamburgers. Yes, you smell strongly of grease afterwards, but it doesn't matter. Family dining is just dining, nothing more or less. It's a fun place to hide when you're not feeling pretty or want to go back to the effortless days of childhood because chances are the restaurant has not changed that much since you were, in fact, a child in the 80's. Afterwards we went to Nick's house and watched two more episodes of Supernatural. It was lovely. No effort, no chores, just chillin' like a villain. If villains did the whole family dining & TV thing.

Now I'm off to fetch my backup alarm clock. It will not happen again, oh no, it will not happen again.
