Waking up: Soundgarden lyrics help fill in the blank

{thanks Shocho for the image}


A few too many days in a row of *not quite enough* sleep. So I woke up this morning feeling just about like this:

Sitting here like uninvited company
Wallowing in my own obscenities
I share a cigarette with negativity
Sitting here like wet ashes
With X's in my eyes and drawing flies....

Thanks Chris Cornell, I couldn't have said it better myself.

A cup of Earl Grey Tea, breakfast with The Wife and a good friend (can't think of a good pseudonym for him yet), and my attitude improved markedly.

Been going since 8:00 am on this my "day of rest." But, I utilized time in between errands well; driving with the windows down, letting the sun on my face, blasting music. It's not laying around on the grass watching butterflies, but it sure was satisfying regardless.
