I need a day of unwashed hair, unbrushed teeth and no bra.
Just one day.
I need 24 hours in my favorite jammies, hiding out in the comfort of my bed, drifting in and out of sleep while watching bad TV.
Just one day.
I don’t want to separate darks from whites, build Lego towers, visit the supermarket or wear a brave face.
Just one day.
I want to be snarky and rude and drown my sorrows in a big juicy cheese burger, French fries and chocolate shake, all of which I’ll surely regret.
Just one day.
I want to completely unplug, letting phone calls, e-mails and text messages go unanswered.
Just one day.
I need a day to be still, silent, curse the universe, wonder why me, feel sorry for myself and sob.
Just one day.
I want to regroup, sort through my feelings and find solace knowing that every cloud has a silver lining and that tomorrow is a brand new day.
