A mental day off
It was another office day today. Seems like those days leave me lethargic once I get home. I basically majored in minors, getting a bunch of little things out of the way. I guess there have to be some days for that, too.
Some days the mind just doesn't want to tackle projects that require a lot of thinking. After a while, you start to recognize how your work cycle operates. Don't push too hard when you need to clear your head and you'll have a clear head the next day. But then I need to use that clear head and not let anything get in the way of productive work the next morning.
Everybody's cycles are different. My sons all seem to delight in working through the night and then catching up on sleep during the day. Not for me. But it works for them.
The important thing is to get to know your cycle and then use it to your best advantage.
Funny. As I look at tonight's blog, I feel like my lethargy has carried through into it. I came into writing this tonight with a lack of energy and no real idea of what to say and I feel like I'm really stretching to find something (cue the echo machine) significant -nificant -nificant -nificant to say.
Well, it's just not a night for that, so I'll pass on engaging in any further self-indulgent attempts to be brilliant and just get my rest.
