you're movin way too fast

i've been missing a lot of sleep for someone who doesn't have to work anymore. i was up until 4am last night and only managed five hours of sleep until the sunlight coming in through my windows woke me.

i sort of feel like i've rushed through the last three days so that i've packed a week's worth of leisure time in without getting a week's worth of sleep. now i'm wondering why i thought i'd need three weeks to hang around up here after my job ended. i think i'm still figuring out how to transition out of a frantic pace and into something more sustainable.

a friend of mine once bought me a book called "slowing down to the pace of life". she had the right idea, but i didn't read more than a few pages into it, such was my appetite for constant engagement. i'd like to revisit it when i get home.
