not a lazy bum!
Productivity is such a wonderful thing!
Lately, I've been in the terrible summer habit of stay out (or just up on facebook) until 2 am or later, sleep in till 9, don't get out of bed until 11, get up and do something trivial, then sit around with a book, or more facebook, or my ipad, or just kind of lazing in bed until work. Then I come home and do more of that nothing. Eventually, I feel so bleh from wasting time that I kind of mope around and can't even sleep, because I exerted basically no energy all day. When people ask what I'm doing this summer, I say, 'being a lazy bum.'
Today, I changed that. I went to breakfast with Ashley, delicious oatmeal and a matcha from Jamba. :) I came home and vacuumed the living room and watered plants and cleaned the bathroom. I vacuumed and dusted my room, cleaned off a bookshelf and put it in, filled it up, organized my desk and books and movies, threw a bunch of stuff away, took out several trashes, wrote a couple pages for a scholarship, went to learn how to feed a menagerie I'll be housesitting, went to the UPS store and mailed things, went to work, went to the bank, and here I sit blogging.
That's a lot! I even made plans for tomorrow to be productive - only better cause it'll be with a friend. And I feel SO MUCH BETTER because I got off my rump and did stuff.
I'm pretty much making this face. If you don't get the reference, go read this. It's applicable.
