Saturday night, almost midnight and I am here. There is a Halloween party tonight with some people from work, but I begged off. Literally. I had to beg to *not* go. Is it weird for me not to want to go? I barely know these people and I honestly am too old to try and do small talk with them, and feel uncomfortable on a night when I could be resting. Ultimately, that really is just what I want to do. And so unapologetically, I am here, I took a long afternoon nap, and I feel good. I was going to get a costume for the party - I was thinking either a policeman or fireman - but now I am just going to watch television. Besides, I already did my obligation lunchtime when I went to one of our employee's Christening of his child party so it's not like they can say I am uncooperative. I enjoyed the lunch, it was at a Brasilian Steakhouse so it's not like it was a bad time. But I just like to enjoy the quiet and serenity of a weekend. Is that too much to ask?
"Pick the day. Enjoy it - to the hilt. The day as it comes. People as they come... The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present - and I don't want to spoil any of it by fretting about the future."
- Audrey Hepburn
