Relax. Get some sleep.

If you’ve seen me at all this week, you know that I’ve been tired. Really tired. I’ve asked if I could take a nap on my office floor, dealt with a headache that threatened to make my head explode, and—GASP!—actually closed my office door.

So when I found out that we were having a “Student Ministry Fun Day” today, I thought, Great, forced fun a la Michael Scott on the “The Office.” Then we got the announcement that we didn’t have to come in the office this morning, just meet at the bowling alley at 9:30 a.m. This, my friends, turned out to be a godsend.

I got to sleep in. SLEEP IN! Yes, I got up at 7 a.m. My head no longer hurt. I felt rested. I actually woke up in a good mood, a rare treat lately. So now, I’m spending a few minutes eating a bagel, drinking coffee, blogging, and watching the Olympics. Because I can. What if all Fridays were like this?

Later today, after the bowling is over, I’ll hop in the car and drive to Missouri to see the parents. This weekend marks one year since Grandma Polly’s death. I’ll try to post from there, but don’t know what the weekend has in store. I’ll drive back on Sunday. And you should call me, so I don’t fall asleep during the drive!
