Quiescent

Quiescent: marked by inactivity or repose : tranquilly at rest

Post-election, my days have been quiescent. The political hoopla is over (until the run up to the election in November), and I'm almost done with a draft of the paper I'm working on for my boss. We had an early happy hour with mimosas today, since P was leaving this afternoon for a long weekend. I only had champagne, since I'm still doing the calorie-counting diet. Cutting out the orange juice makes it healthier. Definitely.

I like long, gently-moving days like this. There's nothing pressing I have to do when I get home today, though my apartment probably needs a cleaning. And the novel I'm reading needs reading. A quiet, quiescent slide into the end of the week...
