This past weekend, I committed the sin of sloth and did absolutely nothing. After a few weeks of traveling every few days and the rocky start of figuring out the schedule for the new school year, it felt as if my brain had decided to simply power down and black out for a few days, to reset. This should have been welcome; I had a rare weekend entirely to myself, with no reason to leave the house between Friday night and Sunday afternoon. But the feeling of sinâit did feel like a sinâwas hard to shake.
