Monday Again

By Joe

It’s Monday again, and I feel like I’m not firing on all cylinders this morning. I have absolutely no inspiration and, quite frankly, I’d just like to go back to sleep. If I didn’t have a class and a meeting today, I’d seriously consider calling in sick and crawling back into bed.

Maybe I’ll feel more human after I take a shower, get dressed, and have some coffee. Sometimes just going through the morning routine is enough to wake up the body and convince the brain to follow along. At least, that’s what I’m hoping for today.

For now, though, Monday has definitely arrived before I was ready for it. Here’s hoping the day improves once I get moving. Have a great Monday, everyone!

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe
