In Which I Napped Too Much LOL |
So.
I may have gotten a bit caught-up in my crochet yesterday.
And it may not have gone well.
I made half a shirt and... I misread the pattern. In my defense, I do that a lot with DROPS patterns, and this one was especially obtuse to me. It has been frogged and set aside for the time being, but eventually I hope to have it made.
Today, though. Today I just did not want to get up. Whether it was the indecisive weather (too hot! too cold! super damp!), the skunk outside my house (phew), or the incessant complaining of a very cranky and lonely cricket, I could not fall asleep until well passed 3AM.
Which makes my awakening at around 8:30AM that much more frustrating.
Naps and I do not usually get along. In the past, napping is either "well, have 8 hours during the day and say goodbye to your circadian rhythm" or "you have laid here for 3 hours and not rested at all, also still say goodbye to your circadian rhythm you putz".
Today was... the latter, sadly. I napped all day and slept not a wink. It's why I don't nap.
But don't think I did nothing all day!
In fact I:
- Walked a mile and a half on the treadmill
- Watched a tutorial on how to paint seashells in watercolor
- Read a bunch of articles on various random subjects because laying there with my eyes shut was getting really boring
- Did a bunch of situps
- Frogged that failed shirt pattern
- Made a really satisfying bowl of cereal and 2 cups of coffee (but only 2!)
- Took a shower
- Ate a banana
- Brushed the cat
- Watched a tutorial on how to make digitigrade feet for a fursuit because it popped up on my recs
- Played a bunch of Pokemon games on my 3DS XL
- Caught up a bit on some of the new areas in New Pokemon SNAP!
- Did about 10 wall pushups before the cat bit me in the back of the leg for attention
- Brushed the cat again
- Tried to nap again
- Got distracted by FB and then ended up falling down a comic book blackhole with my partner (Blue & Gold looks really fun!)
See, when I list it all out like that, I was super active today.
Except most of the actual active stuff fit in a 3 hour window.
Because I'm LAZY.
Anywho, my plans for this week consist of watching a buttload of how-to vids on watercolor, colored pencils, and digital art, all while trying to figure out how to actually follow that DROPS pattern I was talking about because I want a nice shirt that I can actually wear around people...
And that about covers my day today!
Tomorrow might be 75℉ (23.8℃), but it'll feel around 82℉ (27.8℃), so I'm probably going to just quietly melt in my backyard instead of biking down to the waterfront for some art-time like I'd hoped, but I'll try for some sun.
I hope you guys are having a more productive week than I am, but if you're not, don't be too hard on yourself. The plague isn't over yet, and it's stressful out there!
Go Enjoy Something!
