I succumbed this weekend. I expect it was because I knew it was a three day weekend, so I would have plenty of time to accomplish what I needed to do. Maybe since I traveled last weekend, and was exhausted and weaker than normal. All I know is that I fell into an addiction that has been creeping up on me….slowly taking over my life.
Weekend started off good…cleaned the house Saturday, long walk with the dogs, very short, economical nap. Got dressed up and went to a neighborhood party. Had fun.
Sunday, I woke up and two of my friends had crashed out on the couch and we went to brunch, one of my all time favorite things to do. After I went home, things took a turn for the worse. My puppies, Roscoe and Lola, looked especially snuggly and I decided to turn on the TV and watch a little with them on the couch. I pressed LIST on the DVR machine and that is when temptation struck. Without even a scrolldown, I could see seven Law and Order SVU episodes. There was clearly some sort of marathon!!!!!! I clicked on each, to see the description. I had not seen any of them before!!!!
I looked at Roscoe and Lola, who were snuggling amongst my legs. They seemed to understand that we were in for the long haul. Nothing other than ice cream was going to get me off that couch until my need for Eliot Stabler and Olivia Benson was sated. 12 hours later, I unstuck my legs from the apholstry of the couch, tried to revive my joints that were stiff with atrophy and went to bed. You see, i could no longer keep my eyes open.
I have a problem. Help. Me.
