today.

today I was tired. feeling sick. headache out the wazoo. mild fever.

today was supposed to be my day off. my day to finally start that book I bought months ago, my day to take a nice long bubble bath.

today was kind of disappointing. you know when you get your hopes up, but you don't want to, but you do anyway, and then you get bummed out? that was today a little.

today I had a rehearsal, and I didn't feel like I danced very well. I watched a recording of my improvisations, and I was right.

today wasn't my favorite day. and the week has hardly begun.

thank goodness for gid.
thank goodness for hot showers.
thank goodness I get tomorrow to start fresh.

what do you do on disappointing days, friends?
in need of some ideas…

good things...

that happened today:

First, it's my day off. So there's that. Don't you love a free morning friends? Especially one that follows several busy ones. It just feels like I can catch up on life. And by life, of course I mean dumb television shows that I'd hate to admit to my friends I keep up on (bachelor in paradise anyone?), finishing the summer popsicles in my freezer (because someone has to), and taking a good long look at craigslist apartments in paris, london, and quebec. Sigh. My morning is complete.

Second, I organized my closet, did some laundry, got a nice dent in a photo edit sesh, and pretended to exercise for almost a half an hour. It might sound silly, but staying in goodish shape is hard. I can't imagine what it would be like to actually do insanity for real...

Third, at 5:30pm I get to find out (with the rest of my family) if my brother and his wife are expecting a baby boy or a baby girl! We're doing it via skype- I love technology. My bet is a girl. I'll fill you all in on how it goes.

Fourth. Tomorrow is Gid and my five year anniversary. We both have pretty busy days, so we won't be able to celebrate so much, but still. It's tomorrow. I feel like its Christmas eve sort of.

Trying to get back into the habit of writing.
The words aren't flowing the way they used to,
but I have a sneaky suspicion they'll come right back.
