Night Blues

Sunday has an inertia all its own - Responsibilities and necessities are subverted to a greater, lazier cause.

This comes about because I know I have (some) work to do, but I'll be damned if I can find the gumption to go about doing it. Laundry? PSHAH, I SAY! I'm mentally exhausted from helping a few people with their respective futures, and nothing quite spells mental exhaustion like going through a graduate application process, or the dreaded initiation to real life, the "résumé build". Both are productive for the people who initiate them, though neither can be considered, even charitably, a 'productive' use of time for those of us who choose to help these poor unfortunates.

The problematic result, though, is that it's 7:30 on a Sunday and I'm tired like Lindsay Lohan on a Monday morning (Ah, Lindsay Lohan jokes. Will she ever STOP being such an easy, freckled and redheaded target?) I have neither the will nor the desire to face the coming week, and I wouldn't mind crawling into bed right now, the only thing stopping me being a shred of dignity that does not want to admit to going to bed before The Simpsons.

Anybody else ever felt this kinda tired before? That achy, gnarly "I want to sit down and not get up until tomorrow morning" tired? What'd you do to get that tired?

More importantly, did sleep help, or just make you more tired?

Sometimes if you're really tired, and you've been tired for a few days, sleeping a lot actually increases your sleepiness. I forgot where I read that from.

Whenever this happens to me I just go to sleep anyways!

Tom Kamkari agrees with you, it makes me tired also.
