I'm not sure if being awake at 7:30am on a Saturday is _good_, but it does at least beat being unable to get up in the morning. As long as I do my best to rest, I think I've got whatever the hell it was beat.
There is a fairly quiet beach ~15 minutes from my place. This makes me happy. The larger of the two sections - the one with lifeguards - costs, as I'm not a Willmington resident. The smaller of the two - which I saw on the way out - seems to be free. Yes, I wore sunscreen. I am not aware of any burns, and I didn't stay out for more than 1.5 hours. Swimming was odd, since the deepest that is permitted isn't over my head, and I can't see without my glasses, but it was still good. And sun! And book!
Going grocery shopping in summer when I am both hungry and thirst results in... lots of fruit. And veggies, too. And more hummus, since I finished mine (as well as some chick peas, as I intend to try my hand at making hummus). Also, IBC cherry soda. Mostly because I could, and rarely drink soda.
Grocery shopping is _NOT_ where I expect people to try to pick me up. I will admit, I was still wearing my bikini top from swimming, but _still_! On the plus side, I really am much better at small talk, even if I don't like it very much. And, had said person stopped with a compliment, it'd have been fine. Ah, well. Entertainment at the grocery store!
Not terribly hungry, which is amusing, since I was starving when I left the beach, and I just made myself a salad. But, since I know I tend to not be hungry enough when warm and when I just went swimming, I eat my salad anyway.
Cheerful, but tired. It's a reasonable state to be in. Now if I could just find goggles that went _over_ my glasses, I'd be more than just slightly physically tired, too! Mmm. Swimming. And sun! (and no burning)
