I want to update because I can.
Remember how yesterday I said that I wanted to sleep for the next 24 hours and that maybe I actually would? Well, I didn’t sleep for 24 hours, but I did sleep for about 14. I went to bed around 3am because I was reading. When I woke up, it was 1pm, so my night’s rest was about 10 hours. I stayed up for a little over an hour, had “breakfast,” and then fell back to sleep around 2:30. By the time I woke up, it was after 6pm and dark outside. So I didn’t actually sleep for the amount of time that I jokingly said I would, but apparently I actually needed the sleep.
The waking hours of my day were quite boring. I have spent most of it attempting to watch the play Holiday Inn on BroadwayHD (my mom got a year subscription as a birthday present for Meg and me), but the internet is so slow, that it would only load a bit at a time. I’ve finished the first act, but I’ll have to make my way through the second another time. That said, I’m quite enjoying it. It’s not what I expected, but I wasn’t really sure what to except. Aside from that, I’ve played on my phone, watched other movies, and read.
Now it’s time for me to head back to bed before getting up early tomorrow. Even though it’s my day off, I’m planning to go into the center to work on more organizing (I know, I know) and a few other lesson plans I still need to write.
Talk to you soon,
Kristen
