ok so first sidenote ive read the first line of your title probably 12 times since this has been up and my inner monologue voice reads it in the voice of the broken bones fish in the chocolate episode of sponge bobevery morning i break my legs and every afternoon i break my arms lolllll im sorry i had to let that out idk if that makes sense to anyone else but probably a great example of the many useless things my brain gets preoccupied with  not laughing at you because i 1000000 feel the same way these last 3 or 4 weeks have been the day you just described on repeat for me i realized that getting into the habit of doing something out of your house on a daily basis breaks up that wasted day feeling also research is my speciality but not in a productive phd way more like me looking up random crap on the internet and getting restless when i dont have anything interesting to endlessly read about lol
