this past week has left me weary with the sort of fatigue that even a good night’s sleep fails to solve. maybe it’s the weather. the sun is warming the air with half-hearted strength which means i’ve had to reintroduce my arms to sleeves and my toes to socks. maybe it’s because our heat has been on the brink and we had to temporarily move into a hotel with lumpy pillows and noisy neighbors. or maybe it’s just because i’ve been too busy. saying ‘yes’ to everything can fill up a girl’s calendar. i needed to be shaken out of my sleepy haze. what to do? i wasn’t sure. i tried new makeup but even i know that’s too much to ask from a tube of stila lipgloss. i made a checklist so life felt more manageable. i tried coffee because a latte almost always does the trick. nothing was working. but on sunday night, i found the cure. it didn’t come in a bottle with a childproof lid. i didn’t find it in my makeup bag and it wasn’t handed to me by a barista. oh no, it was muuuuuch better that that. it was these guys. SO full of life. SO joyful. SO playful. SO just what the doctor ordered.
