One of Those Days
I don't have bad days. I don't believe in it. Any day spent alive, alert and awake beats the alternative.
I am having a day today that I can only describe as a "dumb day."
Everyone has these days. You feel like you got up out of bed, but your brain stayed behind on the pillow.
In the car I sometimes do listen-and-repeat spanish lessons just to refresh the language I spent four years in school learning. Today words I have know since I was fourteen were escaping me. I found myself struggling for how to say "ready" (listo) and "man" (hombre).
Working with my first client today I kept stuttering and stammering, and I even dropped equipment more than a few times. She hadn't slept much the night before, so she just kept laughing and saying she totally understood the feeling.
At the grocery store this afternoon the girl at the checkout said "hello, how are you?" I didn't respond for several seconds, and then literally shook my head (as if to shake loose hypnosis like in a cartoon or something) and answered with "I'm good... sorry, I'm kinda out of it today."
Dumb day.
