Days like today get a special degree of note from me. Days like today - days that held the promise of any number of things happening but lead to nothing. Days that start off with potential but get swept up, caught in the draining spiral of fatigue and excuse. Wasted days. Days only dead people miss.

Woke up this morning to a great mood. Did nothing with it. Sat around, accomplished nothing, no snags from friends on activities with which to enjoy the day. Sat around some more. Hours passed. Nothing happened. By the time someone came forward to suggest doing something I was so swallowed up by the numbness that I didn't bite the bait. Nothing happened. I sat.

I'm still sitting.

I'm not living my life with days like this.
