A Case of the Mondays

I could not get out of bed this morning for the life of me. I ended up missing my normal train and had to take a later one. And first thing that I did when I got to the office was make myself a nice big cup of coffee.

This might seem normal to the outsider, but most people who know me know that I never drink coffee. It usually makes me crazy and then causes hangover-like symptoms to my body within a few hours. I try my best to stay away from the stuff, but today, I could not resist. I suppose this is what people refer for as 'a case of the Mondays'.

The day seemed to hate me right back. My mind was off in another world. I couldn't focus for the life of me. Instead, I thought about how I had imagined my life to be and how wildly different the reality is from that. Then, I thought about the future. I mean, if I'm imagining my life in the future to be a certain way... doesn't my track record of predictions mean that it'll be wildly different than anything that I'm even imagining? Confusing, yes. Reassuring, no.

Is this another one of those moments where I freak out and then get over it quickly? Probably. Let's reassess tomorrow. But, right now, life seems to suck.

And before I go, let me ask you, do old habits really die hard? It's something I've been thinking about all day and I can't seem to reach any logical answer. What do you think?

Coffee + Cheech = mini coff-tasrophe. Do you like what I did right there? I made a play on words by combining... ah forget it. Hee hee.

I was sick most of last week.. which was terrible since it was SUPPOSED to be my spring break. Son of a... oh well. Summer break here I come... of course I'll be getting a real job by then... *sigh. :)
