So I’ve missed a few days of writing. I promise that I have a good excuse. I was busy…. well, living. I know, it sounds lame, but it is actually true. Yes, writing is a discipline and I should do it every day, but I’m not going to forego nurturing my relationships for the sake of writing. So what have I been doing? Well, as you know, I went to the ballet on Friday. On Saturday I celebrated my friend’s birthday. I behaved myself, but I was the DD for someone else. Isn’t it amazing how drunk people have endless amounts of energy and they just want to stay up all night? Like allllllllllll night! I think it was 4 a.m. when I finally got home and crawled into bed. That should explain what I did on Sunday; I slept! Last night I went out with some friends because it was necessary. The shame is that I have an essay in me tonight, but I just don’t have the energy to write it. I am exhausted and I am only awake because I am forcing myself to stay awake long enough until it is late enough that I will sleep through the night. I hate this game. I’m thinking that 9:30 p.m. should be a safe time. I should probably watch some Breaking Bad to help lull me to sleep.
Check back tomorrow for a real essay.
Until tomorrow…
