I felt off most of this previous week. I apologize for not saying anything sooner.
For most of the week, it seemed it was all I could do to scrape myself together to get to work on time. I felt better as the week went on, which is not how things usually progress. I felt my strongest on Friday and Saturday and am looking forward to putting this lethargic funk behind me next week.
I went ahead and backlogged a Friday quote log, for those of you who keep looking for them. I also have a little meme to pass on.
I usually don’t do these unless tapped, but reading this on a friend’s site made me smile and I thought I might help propagate it without being asked:
10) Eating while leisurely reading a book.
9) Being able to stretch out on your back in a park.
8) Watching trains rumble by.
7) Hearing a rarely-used phrase repeated cunningly, especially if I’m the one employing it.
6) Drinking chocolate milk straight from the container.
5) Listening to birds twittering in the trees.
4) Finding money while walking down the sidewalk (or counterfeit bills slick enough to pass off on your friends).
3) Watching kids dig in dirt, especially if you aren’t responsible for cleaning them up later.
2) Randomly running into friends while you’re out an about.
1) Waking up at your own pace, without the assistance of an infernal alarm clock.
Feel free to post your own simple pleasures (and it need not be 10), or bugging your blogging friends to do the same.
