A Me Day, Not A Mii Day

I'm having a hell of a time staying focused this summer. I promised myself that I would get a move-on to get things done right after I graduated, but I've found my time thus far better spent relaxing: after five hard years in college, I'm not wanting to rush out and get a job, obviously.

So I'm looking for the right pigeon hole in my life to shoot through. I'm looking for the proper motivation to get going, to get things moving, and to get off my ass. But then days like today happen.

Today is a "me" day. The day is barely over, but I've already accomplished a lot in the name of relaxation. I did a little programming. I played a few games (Smash Bros. and Endless Ocean). I walked the dog, twice. Farnsworth Park is already beautiful this time of year (green everywhere), and I'm thrilled to be able to spend some time there. In fact, the single-best part of today is all the "me" time. I just plowed through ten days of work at Meijer, and this is my first full day to relax and do what I want, which is completely awesome.

It's hard to balance all of the many things that I have to do every day of my life, but days like today are perfectly necessary in the grand scheme of my busy so-called life. A one-day vacation from the normal grind and routine is a healthy mental and physical getaway for me (I've walked 4 miles thus far and might do more tonight). I recommend a "me" day to everyone!

Out.
