To begin this story, I think my Facebook updates really say it all.
10:23 a.m. - I would like to thank Yesterday Celeste for deciding to take today off because it was a fantastic and glorious idea.
11:52 a.m. - I'm still in my robe and pajamas. This is the best day ever.
12:08 p.m. - Eventually I need to get dressed, go to Costco, do some housework, etc. But I'm in no hurry. [Note: Other than the getting dressed part, none of this ever happened.]
1:38 p.m. - So far today can be summed up by my favorite quote from Office Space, "I did nothing. I did absolutely nothing, and it was everything that I thought it could be."

Around two I put on comfy yoga pants and a loose t-shirt and took the dog for a long walk that lasted more than an hour.
When my husband got up in the afternoon, we went out and had a meal and returned just in time for me to head out to a party at Cagey's house. There were bourbon slushies there. Delicious bourbon slushies.
After that, I let my sister talk me into going out to see Dolewite, but lazy pajama mode ran too deep for me to truly appreciate a bass-heavy hip-hop cover band, so I bailed out before midnight and went home.
Still, it was exactly the kind of day I needed to finally snap out of my time change doldrums and get ready for the weekend. Really, it was probably more rejuvenating than if I'd taken an actual vacation. I need to do this kind of thing more often.
