Lazy Sunday
My lazy Sunday occurred yesterday, and it was the laziest of days; far lazier than that of Andy Samberg's and Chris Parnell's. They at least went to see a movie. I never left my house nor did I ever leave my pajama pants. That's how you know when a day is dedicated to being lazy, when the pajama pants never come off from start to finish.
Truth be told, I did actually change out of them at one point in order to take a shower. Even on a lazy Sunday, I can't go without showering. But I did hop right back into another pair once I was finished.
My day involved moving from the couch to the kitchen at times to my bedroom, my bed, and my computer. Realistically, though, I guess those are the only places I ever go in my apartment. Oh, and I go to the bathroom, too. So that covers every room that is part of my domain.
Anyway, the point is, I spent all day doing nothing but sitting around. I watched football. I ordered delivery. I ate some food. I did laundry. I didn't do much else. It was an inside day. A lazy day. The fact that it was snowing outside only sealed the deal that I was to stay inside. The irrefutable highlight of the day was the viewing of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, which made me laugh far more times than I expected. It allowed me the opportunity to relive the not-so lost days of my youth (having not seen the film since I was probably in second grade) and to reconnect with my young adult life here in New York. I was able to recognize the notable New York landmarks as they appeared in the film as well as guffaw at the beguilement of the unsuspecting crooks, the Sticky Bandits, by one Kevin McCallister. One paint can! Two paint cans! Then a big metal rod! Brilliant! How does that little tyke do it?
I had a pretty cool day, and I think it is everyone's duty (you owe it to yourself) to take the time out and have one of those days every once in a while. Relax with your soulmate or your roommate, whatever you have at the time, and take in the scenery of the day from the safety and comfort of the couch. It does a body good...sometimes.
