My work week has become so busy and full that I find myself day dreaming of naps and pajamas. Some days it’s a matter of minutes between the time I get home from work and the time I have pajamas on, and some days its a matter of seconds. It feels SO good- too good actually, and as I sit here typing this post (in my pj’s) the idea of Pajama Sunday is getting better and better. It’s the perfect way to spend the first of my 2 days off. I’ve put in more than my share of hours at work, I deserve to relax.
My brain is in mellow mode and it feels like I’ve smoked a bunch of joints (except I’ve never really smoked a joint, so this is merely an assumption). This morning I rolled out of bed, tied up my hair walked to the futon in my living room- the only other room in my apartment- and curled up with my laptop. My plans for my first Pajama Sunday are naps, snacks, trip research, tweeting, blogging, editing photos, and catching up on favourite blogs as well as reading new ones. I will not be getting dressed. I will not answer my phone (unless it’s my Mom, she’d worry if I didn’t answer). I will relax, be lazy, whatever you want to call it. Oh, I also refuse to look at my work email!
I’ve got no strings
To hold me down
To make me fret, or make me frown
I had strings
But now I’m free
There are no strings on me
Hi-ho the me-ri-o
That’s the only way to go
I want the world to know
Nothing ever worries me
Hi-ho the me-ri-o
I’m as happy as can be
I want the world to know
Nothing ever worries me
I’ve got no strings
So I have fun
I’m not tied up to anyone
They’ve got strings
But you can see
There are no strings on me…
Like my new theme song? I know, I stole it from Disney’s Pinocchio– but it fits so well!
I love days like that, where you sit around do nothing and just chill. It normally only ever happens when there is a public holiday as I seem to have filled my weekends with other monotonous things these days but still when I get a day like that I am sure to enjoy it.
Sounds like a nice day to me!
I once tried to do no-computer Sundays. It lasted maybe 2 months before I gave up.
Success! I was completely and utterly lazy yesterday and making up for it today. Monday chores are the worst. lol
Thanks for the comments boys. Adam, I don’t think I could do the no-computer thing. I go nuts if I have no internet, let along no laptop!
