What a day. Sorry it has taken me so long to post, I have been working from home, sick all day, but have had soo much work to do. Funny how things all happen on the one day you cannot come in. I hate being home sick, I always feel like my whole day is wasted by my wallowing, and crappy day-time shows that you think you miss until you are forced to sit and watch them. I mean, seriously, Tyra Banks has a show, and how did I miss the whole Tony Danza faze? Life is passing me by as I sit at work.

But for real, being home during the day is kinda like I am trespassing. I get wierd looks from my neighbors when I go get the mail at 2pm. I know they are thinking, "Doesn't she know the mail does not get here until 2:37? She is soo out of it. Hurry, get the kids inside quick!" I am not used to the sounds the house makes when it is on its own. It saves all the wierd creaky noises for the precise time the "Grudge 2" trailer comes on.

But mostly the afternoon malaise is intensified when your home during the day. Don't know what afternoon malaise is? Its the time between 2-5pm, where you plummet into a deep depression for no apparant reason. You guys all know what I am talking about. Here is an example: You are brought home sick from school after lunch and you catch a glimpse of the strange afternoon world your mom lives while your gone. The house is quiet and you wake up from your nap with the sun slanting in the window, and all you can think is that you wish you had stayed at school throwing up cheetos. Afternoon Malaise. Good times.

Positive Affirmation: Afternoon Malaise is NOT a technical term, but 4 out of 5 of my peeps understand every word I just wrote, and are chuckling to themselves right now.

Lunch: Had a hoagie sandwhich...didn't eat it all. I just wanted to be alone with my Afternoon Malaise.
