A bad hair day

In The Netherlands some employers offer their employees the ability to take a day off if they have ‘a bad hair day’. It has very little to do with your hair, but more that, if you just feel like taking one day off from work, but you’re not sick, you can take ‘a bad hair day’.

Today I consider this ‘a bad hair day’. No motivation. The heat and humidity are just pure torture. All I feel like is to just exist today – nothing more.

The annoying this is that I have a few things I should do. Unfortunately I just can’t give a fuck today.

Had planned to start teaching myself Teeline today.
Still haven’t touched the book.

I think I’ve forgotten how to relax. Instead of relaxing on my designated days off, I still do something, some kind of work. Running around like busy ant.

Barely sit down with a book and enjoy it for hours. Forget just listening to music. I have to do something during.

I’ve never appreciated self-depreciation, but I’m still tempted to say that I hate what I’ve become.

I’ve become what I hate.
Stressed and over-planned.
