non-busy

I woke up this morning about 6:30 and went back to sleep.

Got up about 7:15 and made some coffee and braced myself for the day.

But something is missing.

There is nothing I have to do today. I'd like to finish this book I've been chipping away at for awhile, I'd like to go for a long walk, I'd like to watch Flight Plan.

But I have no to-do list. Nothing pressing. Nothing important, nothing engaging. I could go and hang out with friends or chill alone.

Wow. There are actually people who live this life longer than one Saturday. Wow.

And now if you'll excuse me, I'm about to drink my coffee and enjoy the most relaxing day I've encountered in quite some time. I had days like this in Jordan, and then a phone call from Mahmoud would change everything. But he's not calling me, and I'm not answering - and there's no great falafel and knafe a block away.
