Loopy or Lazy?

All week I've been feeling so disconnected and unfocused. I have sat down every day this week to write both an essay and research proposal for two of my classes and now that it's the last minute I'm starting to panic at the sight of that blank page in front of me!

All I seem to be able to think about is getting cozy, in a bedroom like the one pictured above and reading a good book!

I keep thinking back to an interview I read with Mimi Weddell who said that every time she felt "spacey" she drinks a tablespoon of brandy! Well I think I'm due for a whole bottle of the stuff!
I hate these semi-annual existential crises I always end up in! Where's my beautiful country house, 4 kids, 3 dogs, 2 cats and husband to bring me flowers after work at a private loans office in town?!
Where is my homemade blueberry pie chilling on the window sill? And my friendly neighbors who join me every afternoon for tea and scones?

My brain is on the fritz! How do people manage? Any tips?
