it's only natural

After a weekend (or two) of lovely decadence and unlimited indulgences... I need a break. My body is craving vegetables, a few sweaty runs, green juice a plenty, yoga and perhaps most of all, rest. Lots and lots of rest. I don't doubt that an organized bedroom, clean laundry and a bountiful bank account would help as well.

I'm young (even with a recent birthday), I'm healthy (despite being plagued by a sluggish bloat), and I am most definitely fun-seeking (no apologies). I have enjoyed every single moment of these past two weeks--including the free happy hour at the Empire Hotel Rooftop with my friend, Kate, at which I took these photos. And yet, for now, I've had enough. I would just like to go home after work and head to bed early. Thrilling? Not so much, but it's certainly called for.

So that is exactly what I'm going to do for these next three days; allow my body the rest and tender loving care it deserves, refresh my beloved apartment, give my wallet time to replenish. What is fun if I'm not well enough to enjoy it anyway? Exactly.  Don't worry though, this does not mean that things are going to get boring. We have a few previous evenings of entertainment to catch up on...
