Confession Friday

Oy, it’s been a long week. This Friday’s confessions are brought to you by NOT ENOUGH CAFFEINE IN THE WORLD.

I confess…

  • …that I do not want to go to the dentist today. There have been many changes in my dentists’ practice this past year, and as someone who has a bit of fear of dentists, and, more specifically, pain and dental needles, change is NO GOOD NO.
  • …that I am so tired, I kind of fantasize about getting a really bad cold or the flu or something, just so I can stay in bed for a day or two and sleep. Lots and lots of sleep. Uninterrupted sleep, how does it work?
  • …that my kid woke up whiny and is acting like a right pill this morning, so I kind of dread taking her out into the world today.
  • …that I woke up whiny and am feeling like a bit of a pill my own self this morning, so I kind of dread taking me out into the world today.
  • …that we still have not taken our Christmas tree down yet. And we kind of don’t want to. It’s pretty, and the light it gives in the evening is so warm and inviting and cozy, we kind of want to keep it around as long as possible. I need to find something that gives off that kind of light to use all year round.
  • …that I am wishing for a big old snowstorm so I can sit indoors under a blanket with my knitting and some food downstairs cooking in the crock pot and watch Law and Order UK. (And if not that, well, we have 500 or 600 DVDs to watch. And Netflix. I am covered for a good, long movie marathon — all I need is to be snowed in.) Edited to add: OR SIMS 2!! I’d love to play Sims all day long.
  • …that I have woken up early to ride the bike every weekday of January so far, and while it sucks to get up early and it is making no difference in my weight whatsoever, I’m kind of proud of myself.
  • …that on the days I don’t ride the bike, I am doing yoga. And after a layoff of a few months, going back and doing yoga classes is kicking my ass. My arms ache. My legs are tired. It KICKED. MY. ASS. I am a pansy.
  • …that I have my book club meeting coming up soon, and I have not even bought the assigned book yet. And I don’t think I am going to. BOOK CLUB FAIL. It’s just that they are choosing fiction books that are new, which means hardcover and therefore expensive. And I don’t want to spend a lot of money on a fiction book in hardcover that I am probably not going to enjoy. Especially when I have 10 or 15 books that I own and will probably enjoy sitting in my shelves that I have not even read yet.
  • …that I am getting my hair cut and coloured tomorrow, and it’s crazy how much I am looking forward to it. Even having to get up early and everything, I don’t mind. Three hours all to myself, and a fresh new haircut. Life is good.
