This past weekend I went to the North Carolina beach. My Godparents have a beach house there. It was a calm weekend. I hadn’t seen my Godparents in a little over 2 years and I hadn’t seen their Godson, who also visited for the weekend, in 4 years. We reminisced and rested in beach chairs our on the deck. I got to play with their two dogs, Primo and Moosey, and their cat, Baby (which made me miss my Trampies even more).
Although the weekend was calm, full of reading and watching movies, it was far from relaxing. I’ve never been more aware of the fact that you can do nothing all day, but still feel utterly exhausted by evening. I don’t think I’ve gotten more sleep than I did this weekend in months, yet on Monday morning I was far more exhausted than I would have been if I had played Frisbee or partied all weekend. It’s strange how the body works.

I agree with how strange your body is sometimes. It's funny how relaxing for a whole weekend can actually make you feel more lethargic! I find that when I do physical activity, my body is tired but my mind is more alert - when I laze around, my mind goes and then I'm just shot. :-) I can't wait to see you this weekend! Can you email me and let me know what time the lecture is on Saturday?
