I am tired now

[glowingfish]

I am tired now, but not to worry, because uh, work starts again tomorrow!
But work will probably mean I am *less* tired because I will be working a normal schedule and focusing on work, and not focusing on seeing what type of adventures I can get up to.
But of course, since my life is in a state of flux, that routine...will not be very routine, and will not last for long.

The only thing I love more than routine is whimsically going against my routine. Which I suppose is why my routines tend to last, like, four days.

I often call this the "frosting from a can situation".
It is fun and refreshing to not have to do things, to have things cancelled, to skip or break a routine...it is like having a piece of cake!
But doing that every day stops being a refreshing break---and then it feels like just sitting on a couch scooping frosting directly out of the can into my mouth! And that does not feel fun.

It took me a minute to process this, because I think of frosting from a can as a fun diversion, compared to another piece of cake that uses it in the same old way!

Well then, frosting from a can is itself frosting from a can---because it actually is fun the first time you do it!
But "guilty pleasures" in general start getting boring when they are done without hesitation!
