2002-07-15 - 9:00 p.m.� I stayed home from work today for absolutely no good reason whatsoever. Seriously. I can't even really call it a mental health day (as I often did back in high school), because there is nothing troubling me, and I'm not really even feeling stressed. Last night I made an offhanded comment to my brother about wishing this was a long weekend. He said that I should go for it, because I have paid sick days now. And so it happenend that I took a frivolous sick day. I'm not even feeling guilty about it. I didn't really even feel bad for lying about being sick so I could stay home. I just feel strangely good about the whole situation, like staying home was simply the right thing to do today. I think it's a summer thing. I've been out of school for 3 years now, and I've worked all or part of the last 5 summers, but summer still feels like it should be a great big vacation. I feel entitled to a frivolous sick day, and much, much more than that. I wish I could take the next month or so off, do nothing but stay up late and sleep in, go to music festivals, and swim, and drink of the beer, and watch a multitude of matinee priced popcorn flicks. I want a summer of smelling like sunscreen all the time, and using up vast quantities of glitter gel. I want to wear nothing but shorts and brightly coloured t-shirts and flip flops. I want a summer of not being a grown up, because lord knows I don't feel like one.
