Don't Want to


Today I am out of it. I just wanted to pull the covers back over my head and sleep. I feel hungover. Slow to respond, head all foggy, and heavy eyes. I shouldn't feel this way. I slept the day away yesterday, only waking for dinner with the family. Perhaps that's why I feel the way that I do. It's just lately I feel as if I can't get enough sleep. Work has been mentally exhausting and by the time 5PM rolls around my speech is no longer coherent. My brain just stops. It has reached it's daily limit and shuts itself down. I go home, make dinner, and zone out on the couch. I wonder if it's just time for a vacation again. I am starting to think, though, that is only a temporary band-aid for sanity.
