You are breakfasty, like a pile of pancakes on a Sunday morning that have just the right amount of syrup, so every bite is sweet perfection and not a soppy mess. You are a glass of orange juice that's cool, refreshing, and not overly pulpy. You are the time of day that's just right for turning the pages of a newspaper, flipping through channels, or clicking around online to get a sense of how the world changed during the night. You don't want to stumble sleepily through life, so you make a real effort to wake your brain up and get it thinking. You feel inspired to accomplish things (whether it's checking something off your to-do list or changing the world), but there's plenty of time for making things happen later in the day. First, pancakes.



And an update: )

Every now and again, I let the glum me out for a day. It's only allowed a day and then I have to force it back in and keep going.

Sometimes, I wish the glum would go away after just a few hours, but it's really hard to do.

Anyway, today when I let out the glum, I went back to bed at 10 am and read a dumb kids book. Then I had a nap on the couch followed by watching 4 episodes of Dr Who with [livejournal.com profile] mr_bassman

As much as possible I stayed on the couch and only got up when [livejournal.com profile] mr_bassman got fed up with getting me food and drink.

Now he's gone out to attend to his baronial duties and I'm home with Rose. I can't afford to be as glum as my body and head feel like being - I have a small child to interact with and a deadline to meet.

I'm thinking that a bit of interaction with the outside world will help dispel the glum. Also, a list of good stuff:

  • fun talking with [livejournal.com profile] charlesnaismith about travelling to the places I can't afford to do myself, but can fund him doing.

  • glee at making him send me a postcard every second day, in exchange for the "moolah"

  • tomorrow night will be my first night of sleeping without Rose since she was conceived

  • [livejournal.com profile] doushkasmum's wedding

  • exciting times at work
