Dragging through yet another day. I remember

  • Dragging through yet another day. I remember when I was younger - when it didn't take quite so much effort to lift my feet off the ground.

  • But that was before I'd left earth and moved to this stupid planet where the gravitational pull was 2.3 times greater.

  • Man, you think it's hard to get out of bed on a NORMAL day, try doing it on this planet. Then you might grasp the gravity of the situation. Ha! See what I did there?
