this morning #1674.
this morning, my entire body was extremely sore from yesterday’s hike. it was like, at any moment, one of my limbs might just go limp. call it quits. it wasn’t half this bad when i went to bed. when i got home, i was wiped but in a wholly satisfying way. though it’d been a long day of walking, i’d spent it with friends frolicking in the fresh forest air. pure pleasure. no hint that my body was waiting until morning to rebel. i popped ibuprofen & a gummy. made some coffee. curled up on the couch to wait out the pain. turned on the tv. tried not to move. if i want to avoid this fate in the future, the solution’s simple. i’ll just have to be more active. get back to getting off my ass every once in a while. not today though. uh uh. no way.
