Fluff

Right now, I am trying to work up motivation to go shopping.  And actually, it isn’t the shopping itself that has me hesitating, it’s that I have to drive to get there.  I’m tired, today.  Tired to the point that at 10:45 in the morning, it hurts to keep my eyes open.  And though I don’t have a problem staying awake while driving, I do have a problem staying focused enough to really feel safe.  It’s almost comical, how I drive when I am tired.  I have the hardest time maintaining any kind of constant speed, the car manages to find it’s way onto the shoulder of the road as though I had no choice in the matter, I don’t notice speed limit changes that I otherwise remember without even seeing a sign, and my ability to gauge how long it will take me to brake becomes somewhat impaired.  Maybe this doesn’t sound awful…I know a couple people who just naturally drive like this…but when it happens to me, I get kind of scared, ’cause it isn’t the norm.  Even more so when I have my kids with me.  So, I’m hesitating.  I drank a cup of coffee, but it doesn’t seem to be waking me up at all.  I would nap, but inability to get comfortable enough to sleep is a big part of the reason I am so tired to begin with.  Writing a fluffy blog post hasn’t awakened me any more, either (I didn’t really think it would).  Oh well.  It’s not like we’re gonna starve if shopping doesn’t happen today, right?  Right.
