It's the Weekend. I Want to Find Rest Like Our Dogs Find Their Rest: Good Sleep, Absolute Comfort, & Total Calm

A guy can dream, can't he? The reality is I got a stomach bug, so the sleep was haphazard last night. I did get semi-caught up on White Lotus, though, and had a few pieces of Pepe's pizza, the landmark of southern Connecticut. I woke up this morning to a cup of coffee, but no toast, cereal, or fruit. I need to get to the store.

Yesterday was the grading/writing bonanza I needed it to be and I'm hoping for more of the same today and tomorrow. Maybe rest is just being able to sit still and not have to attend meetings with all the whirlwinds and agendas.

Last night, I was looking at Karal on the couch and saying, "Phew, I'd really like to be able to sleep like she does. A weekend of rest would be nice."

But now I'm waking up and wishing for an everything bagel with egg & bacon. Either that, or a bowl of mini-wheats. But I need my coffee first. This guy does not do the world until the coffee kicks in.
