Antsy

For no reason, I feel kind of tense.  Not necessarily in a bad way, but in a restless way.

Which, come to think of it, is pretty bad since I should be getting to bed soon.

A hot shower would probably do me good, but I'm fighting the usual battle against my kotatsu.  For those who aren't familiar with what a kotatsu is, it's basically a table with a blanket and heater/stove built in under the top.  With the lack of indoor heating, it makes it EXTREMELY difficult to drag myself out from under my kotatsu once I've put myself there.  They look cute and innocent enough, but they suck the life out of you faster than.. I don't know, take your pick:  lawyers, family reunions, a remote town along a Japanese peninsula...

If you want to see an example of something that occurs almost daily in my home thanks to my kotatsu, you can watch this:

Also, my throat is killing me.  Rubbed raw from a nasty, dry cough that's been bothering me all day.  I don't think I'm sick.  I just slept under the kotatsu last night (did I mention that they dehydrate you to the point that you could be packaged as an astronaut snack?).

Tomorrow night there are plans of hanging out happening, but I don't know if I'm going to go in on it yet.  It's been a long week, and I'd hate to almost immediately crash like I did the last time I went to a big group event.  Plus, it's at these things that I tend to feel the most lost.  And to top off my whining, Im kind of embarrassed to go right now.  We'll see, though.  Maybe tomorrow will be extra sunny so that I can undergo another shot of optimism.  <3
