All I feel like doing today is lounge around. I guess that’s just another way to say I have no motivation to do anything today. So much so, that when I woke up at 7:00 this morning and realized the cable had been shut off, I called, paid the bill and went right back to sleep. It’s not depression, I’m not feeling down or anything, I am pretty sure that it’s just plain laziness. Being out of work offers a great deal of opportunity to do whatever you want, whenever you want. It also offers the serial procrastinator more time to put things off until later. I did begin to do the dishes that were piling up, then I decided to just put the remainder in the sink under the guise of, they really need to soak for a while. If I had a dishwasher, I’m pretty sure I’d be loading it up regularly and running it as needed, but you never know. It’s like when you think that if you made more money you’d save more money, but you always find a way to increase your expenses when you earn more. Then you wonder how you ever managed to eke out a living on your previous salary.
I have three items in the kitchen that share two outlets. So, when I want to make toast, I have to either unplug the microwave or the stove. Since The Boss was annoyed that the time on the microwave is never right and keeps resetting it, I’ve gotten into the habit of unplugging the stove. So, today I unplugged the stove and dropped the cord behind it, instead of looking for it I decided I would just wait for my roommate to get home and he can find it for me, and I figured, well I just won’t cook anything today that can’t be toasted or nuked. Hey, it’s not as bad as the apartment I had that only had one circuit so that if I wanted to make toast I’d have to turn off all of the lights and open up the refrigerator for some light so I could even see the toaster. At least now I can make coffee and toast at the same time as long as I plug them into outlets on opposite sides of the kitchen. However, if I have the air conditioning unit in the living room on, I have to keep the toast and coffee separate.
Anyway, I ended up finding the plug without having to pull out the stove, the dishes are halfway done, and I have had my coffee and my toast. Otherwise, I’m still in my pajamas at 2:00pm and just beginning to get my ass in gear. Maybe I’m not entirely lazy, maybe I’m just slow to get started today. Today’s post is boring me, I think I’ll go take a shower. Ugh, maybe later.
Loving this!!
