I'm recuperating.
That is what I call it when I lie in bed for 3 straight hours doing absolutely nothing.
No, really.
I am recharging after yesterday.
Yesterday. The longest day I have had in ages. The most exhausted I have been in ages. The most aggravatingly frustrated I have been in ages. The fuzziest my brain has been in ages. The least amount of time and attention I have put into a college English paper in... ever.
So today I am giving myself a break, and tomorrow I will faithfully return my nose to the grindstone.
And it turns out a break means allowing myself to just lie in bed and eat as many mini chocolate donuts straight from the bag as I want. It means allowing myself to daydream of spring break, because really, 4 weeks ain't that many. It means allowing myself to not pay attention to my cell phone. It might even mean allowing myself to take time for a run.
In short, it means allowing myself to take a break from unhappy.
