In bed...
why is it that things seem so perfect when they're ideas and they are never really that great when the idea becomes reality?
marriage is a good example (or so i've heard). when you think about it, you think that you'll have the perfect little marriage and will be the adorable little married couple that everyone loves. of course reality is usually far from that dream of perfection. life is mundane, you become boring, you still fight about both stupid and important things, you get stuck in a routine, and not even you find yourselves adorable.
even smaller things like staying in bed all day don't end up perfect. first of all, i cannot remember a day when i really had so little to do that i could stay in bed all day. even when i was horribly sick a couple months ago, i had a couple little things to do where i had to get out of bed for a while. but certainly in everyday life, i can't just stay in bed all day. the idea seems wonderful, though. even better if you're in bed with the one you love. you think you'll sleep in late, have breakfast in bed, cuddle, sleep, read, entertain each other, and maybe expand into listening to the radio or watching movies while staying in bed together the entire day. but the actual day hits, and you kick yourself out of bed at a certain point because you can't put things off any longer. the idea seems perfect, but the reality doesn't work as well.
my goal is still that one day, once i have finished all exams and secured a job, finished errands the day before, and had mayhem stay the night, i will be able to spend a stress-free day in bed. the idea still sounds perfect, so my mind still finds it appealing. i hope it happens some day.
