Sun-day, fun-day

Lately I've been feeling like a sloth and today I finally did something about it. I was productive since I woke up early this morning. I hoped right into the shower because I knew if I didn't, then I would remain in my lazy state of mind that's been taking over recently. What followed was pretty mundane, but necessary stuff that I've been putting off for a while - laundry, shopping, ironing, cleaning. Sounds like fun doesn't it?

To treat myself for doing all that boring stuff, I went to a matinee to watch Derailed, the new Jennifer Aniston flick. I had heard bad reviews about it, but since I don't go to movies much (maybe 3 times a year at most) I decided it was worth it since I wasn't paying for it. I have movie passes that expire at the end of the month so I took advantage and went. I miss going to the theatre, but going by myself is not always easy which is usually why I won't normally go. Today I felt strong and wanted to get out in the world instead of hiding myself and the funny thing is, it wasn't so bad. It was a nice day so I walked to the theatre and got there just as the previews were starting, which gave me little time to think and ponder being alone. When the movie ended and the lights went up, I realized that I wasn't the only single person there and that made me realize that I shouldn't be afraid to do things on my own. It's not a bad thing, it just sucks after the fact when you don't have anyone to discuss the plot with.

After the movie, I came home and made dinner for the next couple of days and then did something really crazy. I made Christmas cookies!! I don't know what possessed me, but boy are they good and really easy to make. Only 3 ingredients and 10 minutes to bake. It takes longer to clean up after then it does to make them. And I still managed to finish everything before Desperate Housewives came on.

Now if only I knew how to get rid of them without eating them all myself!
