I went to bed tonight with a sudden realization: I hadn't stepped foot outside even once the entire day. Two packages were delivered today, so I did see the light of day and momentarily breathe some fresh air, but my toes stayed squarely behind my threshold. I spent some time watching the Today show, one of my continuing morning traditions since high school. Then I spent the majority, or the remaining entirety, of the day researching and outlining for my seminar paper. The articles I read were incredibly interesting, so the time passed quickly. After a few short minutes of a reading-induced sleep, I took to cleaning my apartment, which I always take for filthy before it even reaches the boundary between clean and slightly unkempt. By the end of the day, I found myself right where I began, spending over twenty four surprisingly pleasant hours in the same seven hundred square feet.
