… but don’t expect an answer.

I told myself I should switch off the alarm, go back to bed, and take the day off. But I got up anyway.

I told myself that I should shut my laptop, go back to bed, and take the day off. But I went to take a shower anyway.

I told myself that I should towel myself off from the shower, go back to bed, and take the day off. But I got dressed anyway.

I told myself that I should go back into my building, go back to bed, and take the day off. But I walked to the Metro anyway.

I told myself that I should go back through the turnstyle, go home, go back to bed, and take the day off. But I got on the northbound train anyway.

By the time I got on the shuttle to work, I was pretty sure I’d made a considerable mistake not switching to the southbound train and heading back into DC, but I got on the damn shuttle anyway.

And about five minutes after I got in to work … I decided to go home. I’m going to wait until 11 so I can hopefully make up the time and not use any of my PTO.
