Slow Start

Isn't "mood" a strange phenomenon? Yesterday I woke up and I felt clear and happy and ready to tackle the myriad of challenges that I KNEW would pop up. And pop up they did. Nothing life altering, but puzzling, annoying and in need of attention. The day came to an end and I went to bed still mulling over the day's events, trying to figure out a response and a course of action. Today, my eyes opened, still heavy with sleep, and all I wanted to do was go back to sleep. Hard to do with Trudy and Louise (my furry medium sized dogs) hogging the bed and the cat walking on my head. If I could, I would play hooky today and punt the whole darned thing. I would bake cookies, watch really dumb movies and swill tanks of coffee. But I gotta go and face the dragons. Damn. I wish I had paid more attention in dragon slaying class. Oh well. Maybe I'll buy a mood ring and plan my days around its ever changing color: "Oops my mood ring is black- I'd better stay home."
