But Not Today

Usually,

I feel like there aren't enough hours in a day and
I'll never have a chance to rearrange my shoe shelves to make room for my new boots and shoes and
I wish I had time to organize the drawers in my bathroom vanity and
I need to take a nap and
I need to call back the people I haven't had time to talk to and
I have to remember to find out what the eighth song on Amnesiac is called because it's my new fave and I don't have the case in my car and
I wish I could just play with Hayden and not stress out about work and errands and
I should really give myself a facial because my skin is looking horrible.

But today...

There are too many hours in today. I rearranged, I reorganized, I didn't take a nap, but I did lie in bed with a good book while Hayden napped. I talked on the phone, discovered song 8 is "Dollars and Cents", and I played and played with Hayden until we ran out of things to do. And it was only five o'clock. I didn't know what to do to pass the time. For three and a half more hours, I tried to come up with things to fill up the night. I gave him an extra long bath, tried to get him to sing into a microphone, we played with maracas and a harmonica. Eventually, he got tired of me and played with his trucks while I watched last night's TIVO-ed Conan. Now he's in bed and Neil still won't be home for two hours. This is the longest day ever. And even if I had enough Kielh's products, a two hour facial wouldn't help.
