Couch Potato.
Ladies and gentlemen, your trusty neighborhood blogger has fallen into a funk. Thanks to a nagging headache that has persisted for a good 3 days now, and a general sense of malaise, I’ve found myself perfectly content this week with curling up in front of the TV with a box of Ritz Crackers and a jar of peanut butter (so amazing by the way) and saying, “to hell with the outside world!” Okay, well it’s not that intense, but I have been feeling a loss of interest as of late.
I used to work out nightly with all the vigilance and determination of an Olympic athlete in training, but suffice it to say that I haven’t so much as broken a sweat in over 14 days. The comfort of watching 30 Rock DVD’s in my pajamas has been far more appealing.
I’m assuming this is somewhat of a natural phase one must work through when one isn’t, well, working. So my question for today is: If you’ve ever been out of work, how do you combat the primal urge to simply wrap yourself up in a big comforter and watch TV all day long?
