Dolce far niente

Thom is away at a conference for the next few days, so it’s just me and Alex the cat holding down the fort. Today’s activities included catching up on TiVo, websurfing, and occasionally playing with Alex or watching him nap. For the first time in a long while I found myself quite bored, momentarily. I suppose it’s not that there wasn’t anything to do; I just had too many choices of things to do (I also considered calling up friends or doing some housework or going out to see a movie), but had insufficient energy to do them. Yeah, so today was nice and lazy; nothing too taxing or strenuous. I’ll get enough of that when I get to the office tomorrow. Oh, wait, it’s still the weekend: I will not think about work.

I’m going to either watch some more TV or do some reading, then it’s off to bed.

Update (23:44): Thom reports from the field, posting mere seconds after my entry. We’re coincidental like that.
