Sleeping is, hands down, the best thing I get to do every day. From the time I get up, I can’t wait to get back to sleep. Going to bed is amazing. It’s like the foreplay of sleep. I love everything about it. I love lying down. I love blankets. I love pillows. I love pajamas. I love reflecting on the day and planning for the next one. If I had my way, I’d be in bed as much as an unemployed baby with clinical depression. Except my diagnosis would be “clinical living the dream.” - viaTruth.
Truth x a million.
Truth x infinity.
(and just an fyi, the article above is worth reading)
There are a few things I've come to the conclusion to, since being 22:
1. I love sleep. SO much.
2. I have no more time for sleep. Or anything else for that matter. Where did this time go?
3. Errands. Errands take a whole lot longer than I ever thought possible. My mom used to spend all day running around getting things done, and I thought it was ridiculous that it took a whole 24 hours! Figured out why. Driving. Driving to run errands takes for-ev-er.
4. An idea of a fun weekend does not mean going out anymore.
5. I plan my life in my head at night while lying in bed, all the way up until my retirement. That whole "making lists" thing? I do it.
6. Finally, and maybe the most depressing one of them all: my calories catch up with me now. High school lunch meal (every day my senior year) = 2 lunchables, 33 cent candy bar (usually a Reeses) and a bottle of water (grand total of $2.78! Thank you Maceys!) If I ate that these days, I'd die.
And since six is my lucky number, I will end there.

I read this article today, too. And I loved it. And then I smiled to myself when I saw you posted it... because I'm pretty sure my family wondered what was wrong with me as a teenager/young adult when I'd sleep hours and hours and hours. Sleep is just the best. Everything else just takes too much time.
this may be the best thing i have ever read. fullheartedly agree with ever last word. and i just may re-blog it. if you dont mind. totally made my day that im not the only sick pathetic one who feels this way.
ha ha so true. i think about how i used to eat taco bell for lunch and mac & cheese for a snack every single day in high school and i didn't even appreciate it. i do now...i definitely do now.
