I got up this morning at about 6:00, did a few chores on the computer, then ate breakfast. At 8:00 a.m. I laid down for a nap. I got up about 9:30 when the phone rang. After I completed my conversation, I slogged through my to-do list. At 1:00 p.m. I realized that I was still wearing my pajamas.
Growing up, we usually assumed that people who acted this way were drugged, mentally ill or just plain lazy. Since I am sober and passed my last mental status exam I'm afraid I might just be lazy.
That is unless I reinvent myself as an Artist. John Steinbeck said: "Only in laziness can one achieve a state of contemplation which is a balancing of values, a weighing of oneself against the world, and the world against itself." Yeah, that's the ticket.
And another thing, it was really hard to motivate myself to write this blog today. You're welcome!
