I am not whining about being ill...I am simply explaining why these few posts have been incredibly boring. At one point I thought sinus medicine was all I could mention. Reading and writing have been out of the question. (psssst...I'm writing these posts days later because I can finally focus on a computer screen.)
Naps have been regular. Cups of tea abundant. Pillow flips for sides of coolness necessary.
All of this quiet, strange sleeping patterns and sinus pills can lead to a haze. Odd dreams. I've had some of my best dreams this week. What actually made me laugh though was a little moment that I experienced. I woke up in between snoozes to see Days of Our Lives on the screen. The same sisters were fighting with the same "boys"... just as they were the last time I saw this show. IN 1993!!!! 19 years later and the same %&#*ing storyline???? Really? It took me a second to even realize. Somewhere between the feverish fog and a time warp to my college days I was very confused. It was in that moment that I sat up straight with a huge awakening. In a flash...a decade...or two...can fly by. If you don't grow up, move forward, change...you are as stale as a soap opera from the 90's. I sat up and busted out the remote. I clicked on the Series Manager and deleted things I no longer need to record. I adjusted lists for my new tastes. Found some new stuff. Let go of some outdated choices. I then saw this as a huge metaphor for my life. The next round of changes is brewing in me like a fresh pot of java. I am worn, weary and tired all over again and for different reasons. Change is in order. And maybe just maybe I'll save myself from wasting time. I will learn now... before it is too late... that if I should wake in a decade from a sick nap...Chuck and Blair probably will still be doing their love dance on Gossip Girl so maybe I don't need to watch it anymore. Sorry, Serena you are done. XOXO.
