post-vacation malaise



The second definition at dictionary.com

2. a vague or unfocused feeling of mental uneasiness, lethargy, or discomfort.

Unfocused? Check.
Lethargy? Check.
Discomfort.... hmmm? Well I am back to work.

I am happy enough to drop most nutrition and fitness goals by the wayside on vacation. I really am. Darn it, I work hard and eat well the other 90% of the year so I can forgo a few days, weeks (months?) here and there without much guilt. In the span of about 8 days, I completed one 4 mile walk around my boyfriend's mother's complex in Florida. We went kayaking for a good few hours one afternoon (note attached picture). What else? Do 12 oz. Corona curls count? Oh vacation, how I long for you already.

I am drained as well. That's the lethargy I suppose. I slept for nearly 13 hours last night and still felt like I could have slept longer. (Bed sores be damned!) I'm not sure when I'll next think about going to the gym, let alone for a run. Bah! Well, maybe a run to the nearest Corona store...

Happy trails.
