Sizzle Says

“I could really go for a nap,” I say to Hillz as we are driving back from brunch, yawning while simultaneously passing a sign that says “Don’t sleep! There is too much living to do.”

Frankly, I’m full up on living at the moment. I need some sleep! All week I’ve been trying to play catch up post-vacation and it is showing on my face and in my attitude. I’ve been all over the map with my emotions- not eating regularly, not walking, getting less than 8 hours of sleep, crying sporadically, feeling the overwhelming desire to scream just to let off steam. .  .you know, typical Sizzle behavior when I am completely ignoring my own needs.

Time for a fucking regroup.

“But if I listen to the dark/You’ll embrace me like a star/Envelope me, envelope me…/If things get real for me down here,/Promise to take me to before you went away/If only for a day/If things get real for me down here,/Promise to take me back to the tune/We played before you went away. . .” – Sound of White, Missy Higgins
