In many ways, yesterday was a day which I needed assistance to get what I needed to do done. Today was very different. I had the freedom to do what I wanted - even if all I wanted to do was rest. And rest I did.

Yesterday was the end of a disrupted sleep cycle for me. Today, I caught up on most of that sleep, not waking up until noon. For many of us that would be a weekend luxury. But for a retired person, one has the choice on when to sleep and when to be awake. And I find that being awake well into the night allows me to enjoy the peace and quiet that only occurs on the graveyard shift.
When I finally got moving, I wasn't sure of whether I should go to the bank on co-op business or not. I'm glad I put this off until tomorrow, as there was another check I had to get cut -and I didn't want to get dressed as Mario unless I didn't have to do so. This allowed me even more free time before going to a trivia night meetup being held at a local brewpub.
Around 5:45 pm, I decided to get dressed to go to the brewpub. Although the weather was cold outside, I decided to wear a comfortable dress and head off to Ossining. I'd never been to the Sing Sing Kill brewpub before, and was pleasantly surprised to find it across the street from the local police station. Given that Spring street has been the dividing line between Ossining's nice and not so nice neighborhoods, it was nice to know that Ossining's government and businesses are working to make the village a better place to live.
At 7:00 pm, trivia night started. By 8:00 pm, I was starting to feel tired. None of the questions were in any of my strong fields of knowledge. Even so, our group finished in second place. I was glad to be out of there by 8:30 pm, and began to wake up while talking to TCL. After I got home, I chatted with RQS, and then fell out for a while. I guess it will take a little while longer until my body's circadian rhythm is back to my "normal".
