My friend and coworker had to have Thursday, my day off, off. So, she switched me her day, Saturday. I haven't had a Saturday off in I don't know how long. What's more, I'm schedualed off Sunday too.

I didn't want to wake up. When I did get out of bed, I promised myself I would put the dog out and go right back to sleep. I didn't. I got on the computer. My tummy rumbled, reminding me to eat. I didn't want to. Usually the first thing I do when I wake up is eat. I didn't have the energy. I did make my breakfast, and I ate it. I didn't want to get on my FarmVille, which will penalize you if you plant crops and don't harvest them in time. I knew that I was about to lose my entire crop, but I didn't want to get online. I did anyways, and chatted with friends. I didn't want to be sociable, but found that despite my lack of desire, my attitude was engaging. So I chatted for awhile, and looked up the average salary for the career I want.

When I got off there, I thought about two things. Walking, and the computer game my husband spent his last free dollar on for my birthday. He's been pestering me all week to play it, and I did beg for it. I'm happy to have it. I just didn't feel like it. But I couldn't make myself get on my treadmille and walk, either. My stomache growled. Oh, yeah. It's been about 7 hours, I should probably eat lunch. So, I make lunch, and look at my kitchen, realizing I need to put away about 3 weeks worth of dishes away into space I don't actually have, and wash the past two day's dishes. I sigh, mope, and whine to myself. Finally, the part of me that wants to have it done offers a bribe: "Cereal and frozen yogurt if you do the dishes." This is an unusual occurance: usually, if I have to do anything unpleasent or difficult, the whiny side opens with the begging for treats. That was how tired I was. I didn't even want to eat if I had to work for it.

So, I finish my lunch, convince myself to finish the dishes, and make my yogurt. I sit down at the computer, find mail laying on my laptop. When I open it, I find it's my vision insurance!!! Yay!!! Can't wait for new perscription and glasses. Wonder when my health cards will show up? Sit down at computer, play my birthday gift for a nice long time. Husband comes home, deposits dogs in the computer room, leaves room, comes back to inform me it's 4 AM. My stomache again reminds me, I have to eat. So, I signed off, put the dogs out, and realized why I'm all sluggish. It's snowing. I am incredibly sensitve to barometric pressure, temperature changes, and light adjustments. I probably knew it was going to snow, and wanted to hide in bed all day. I wish I had, I am still very sluggish. Tomorow, I'm going to build a snowman. That'll wake me up.

So, it's the end of my day, I did my journal, and my dinner is finally ready (tofu, grapefruit, brocoli, califlower, and almounds all stirfryed together, mixed with brown rice.) good night.
