oh happy day.
Oh, chile… Friday was a long day at the end of a long week at the end (well, a day after) of a long month.
I was spent. 2008 is working me thus far.
I ended up falling asleep sitting up yesterday.
Whoa, you know? But every day is a new day.
And, given a new day, I did 10 things:
1. Slept in late after sleeping for seven hours solid. That’s rare.
2. Had peanut butter toast and coffee while watching HGTV in my pajamas.
3. Got the best manicure-pedicure EVER. Seriously. Why did I ever go anywhere else? This girl reefed on my calluses like she was digging her way out of prison. I have baby feet. BABY FEET.
4. Sat out on the pier in the sunshine and drank a caramel macchiato.
5. Became confused about Groundhog Day, and actually asked, “Now, what’s the thing they stick down the hole? What do they use for that? A gopher?” I still can’t explain where my brain went in that moment.
6. Took the longest, hottest shower on record with my happy brown sugar scrub, emerging both smooth and cookie-scented.
7. Crawled back into bed after that, giant towel wrapped around my head.
8. Got up, glammed up, went out for dinner (see above…)
9. Ate so much Greek food, I may well pop. And leave a faint smell of garlic in the air.
10. Caught my heel in the sidewalk next to my house, and squished my toe when I flew out of my shoe in a garlic-scented trajectory.
Best day ever? Maybe.
Spent too much money? Absolutely.
Relaxed? Almost.
And you?

I can think of only two words right now: Bill Murray.
And I must say that taking the occasional Friday off does aid with the relaxation. I keep thinking that tomorrow is Monday.
