Zzzzzzzz....

I clicked on "New Post." Then my brain locked up. I'm sooooo tired. I was hoping to leave work during the 10 last night -- we were ALL tired from Election coverage ... but there were some issues and I ended up leaving late again.

I had hoped to snooze a bit on the couch this morning after getting Jack on the bus....but then someone called in sick at work...causing a big ripple effect on who would cover what...and that kind of ended that plan.

So now I'm blankly staring at my computer. I think once I tear myself away I will go get under a blanket and read. THE WORLD WILL NOT END IF I TAKE SOME TIME FOR MYSELF AND READ INSTEAD OF FOLDING THE LAUNDRY WAITING IN THE BASKET. I tell myself. But then I think, the longer it sits in there the more wrinkly it gets. No, I'm gonna read. Darn it. TIME FOR MYSELF IS OK.

THAT'S RIGHT. LOGGING OFF TO GO READ NOW. READING!!

But not without laying out THE FIVE:
1. Cold.
2. Tired.
3. Amused. Nick is being funny.
4. Concerned. He has a big blow up spiderman chair, and he just told me "The air blew out of my chair." That can't be good.
5. Ready to go read for a bit....

Just throw it back in the dryer with a damp towel that will take the wrinkles out. I do it all the time!

I think you need a vacation day.

Not that it will help, but I'm exhausted and cold and grumpy here too. I'm feeling your pain.

LOVE that you put that pic up :) I miss seeing my favorite friends. :(
