Time Keeps Passing, No Matter What
Oct. 19th, 2007 07:56 pmI think I need to beat my inner overachiever into submission.
When I complain to my husband that all I managed to do on my day off was move the speakers to the basement, move the stereo to the office upstairs, set up the shelves and unpack all our DVDs, move two more boxes to the basement, unpack another two boxes, walk to the bank and the library to deposit my paychecks and pick up my books on hold, get my car inspected, straighten out my work schedule for the next two weeks and half of next year, buy frames for two pieces of art, pick up fresh veggies for dinner, take a giant bag of clothes to Goodwill, buy accessories for my Halloween costume, and pick him up at the T station before a migraine knocked me out at 5:30pm....
... and then still manage to make dinner and bake an Apple Thingy for dessert....
I think I can lighten up on myself. Just a little.
Except that I still need to work on my current crochet project, write a LARP, design a ritual for another game, move the bookshelves in our bedroom, buy curtains, actually hang the artwork, and (always) continue unpacking.
Later. I think right now I hear a bubble bath and a cheesy Mercedes Lackey novel calling my name.
