Having An "I Don't Care" Day

That's right. I don't care. From the moment I woke up, I stopped caring about what happened today.

Yesterday was insanely beautiful. The sun was shining, I'm sure birds were singing somewhere, and the air had that crisp, fresh feel to it. I found myself thinking that it was a perfect way to start a new month.

Then today happened. I woke up and all I saw out my window was grey. Nasty, muddy grey. It was raining AND foggy, and it was so cold!

After having a quick shower I threw on some sweatpants and a sweater, didn't bother to do my makeup or my hair, and walked out the door.

That mood has continued with me throughout the day.

Right now every eye is on the election in the United States, just waiting to see who emerges victorious. Guess what?

I don't care.

Now I realize that I shouldn't be so apathetic about something to important. I mean, even though it is an American election, its outcome will certainly affect Canadians. But right now I don't care.

Right now I don't care about anything. I don't care if I don't get my reading done for tomorrow. I don't care if I am wearing the same jeans for three days in a row. I don't care if my hair is frizzy and unmanageable. I just don't care.

I blame my (crazy and slightly irrational) mood on severe blood loss (more on that humourous story tomorrow.) Right now, I don't feel like myself. I feel slightly liberated, but at the same time should probably think about coming back down to earth.

Right now, however, I'm enjoying this lightheaded and hearted feeling. Until a caring day I bid you adieu.
