laziness

Over winter break, any semblance of normalcy or rhythm to my day falls by the wayside. I have no motivation to get up at a normal hour and no motivation to stay up for long. And all of this makes falling asleep difficult which makes me sleep even later. Its a vicious cycle.

This morning, for instance, the mutt and I rolled out of bed at 10 a.m. I realized I was out of milk and couldn't make coffee without it, so I took a 10 minute trip to the store to get milk. Came home, made coffee and curled up in bed with the mutt to read for a while. At noon, I put the book down and the mutt and I took a fantastic siesta ... that lasted two and a half hours. And now, its 3:00, I'm about to make more coffee (mmm ... coffee ....) and I KNOW I will not fall asleep tonight!

Ah well, such is life without responsibilities!
