Back to... [Freewriters Daily Prompt - Saturday]

Mondays through Fridays and then the weekend arrives.

Every week, life seems to be on repeat. Groundhog day sometimes, maybe not to the exact but close or is it Edge of Tomorrow? When a day comes, everything seems to be on an autopilot mode - alarm rings, wake up, shower, go through the day and then night comes. Take the train to the office, walk the steps, take the lift, take out the laptop from the bag, connect all the power adapters, connectors, bluetooth mouse, bluetooth keyboard and all that jazz. While part of me goes on autopilot mode, the brain doesn't and sometimes, I would try to concentrate, to complete what I needed complete for the day but to no avail because the brain refuses to connect.

Then comes the weekend, and auto pilot mode kicks in just the same where laundry, mopping, toilet cleaning becomes part of the mode. Every weekend, it seemed like just yesterday I washed the toilet. As much as I feel like dropping the chore for the weekend, again, the brain refuses to co-operate. The little voices that whisper closely annoyingly, that wouldn't leave until each chore is done. Sometimes I cheat, scrub a little less, mop less but in the following week, I would scrub twice as much or mop twice more, mainly out of guilt from the week before.

Every week, every day, I try inject a little something different to the day. Most times unsuccessful, sometimes successful. And yes, going back to writing is another attempt. You know, typing this post itself brings me back to the memories of when I was so involved here before actual work took things over. But hey, there are many things that I do not mind the repeat, for example when it comes to bedtime. Although, I have to say, I have become rusty. It is already 10 minutes and I hardly wrote much.
