It finally happened; I just outright missed a day here. I realized late at night, and had this moment of Maybe I should write something now that was quickly replaced by It’s 11 o’clock at night and you’re nowhere near a computer, let it go. It had to happen, especially considering the nature of this week, which has seen my early mornings filled with stuff: dentist appointments, preparations for visiting folk, watching things on the Internet under an NDA that are time-sensitive, writing about Spider-Man movies, and so on. All of which is to say, this week has been a surprisingly rough one, when it comes to starting the day off right.
That might explain the fact that, this morning, I woke up thinking Is it Saturday? Please let it be Saturday? with no small level of desperation. Each week this year has increasingly felt that way, getting to a point where it feels more exhausting to just get to Friday in one piece. I’m waiting for the turnaround.
