Shaking it off

Still tired and woozy.  Sun's just breaking through the clouds but tomorrow promises to be another rainy and cool day.

Managed to shake off some lethargy - enough to get to the gym and then met a friend for lunch.

By the time I returned home after a bit of shopping, I was ready to rest again.  But at least I had a friend to keep me company...

Still in recovery mode

Spent most of yesterday in bed and I'm still tired.  Did nothing but watch television off and on.  Managed to view two movies in their entirety - both good - Half Nelson and Kick-Ass.

Half Nelson was really well-acted but a bit slow and not very uplifting. It was the story of a drug-addicted teacher and his relationship with one of his troubled students.

Kick-Ass was a nice antidote to that.  A wannabe superhero gets drawn into the dealings of a father and daughter vigilante team with very violent (and funny) results.

I'm still dealing with the cold.  Although improved, I'm still tired and need to skip softball practice.  I think I'll spend the day cleaning, catching up on laundry and seeing what's on TV.

More to come.

It's a start

Well, this is it!  The first day of the rest of my life.  Except for two brief visits to update my attendance I don't have to go back to work anymore.  What a strange feeling - and ridiculously liberating too!
I'm sitting here in the home office, sunlight streaming in, just waiting for the coffee to brew.

If only I didn't have this damn chest cold. I'd be out with all the others I spy from my window, walking down to the market.  I know I have to stir myself at some point, but honestly - don't I have all the time in the world?
