not enough time
Nov. 24th, 2008 11:28 pmToo much to do and not enough time in which to do it. The 30 minutes additional to my commute in the morning isn't bad, it's the 30 minutes in the evening that seems to make all the difference--particularly on nights like tonight when my 45 minute ride turns into 65.
I've got a hundred things I want to do before I leave Wednesday. I did about 6 of them tonight, but the were big ones: start to pack, print directions, put the powercord for my laptop in my suitcase and took care of a few maintenance itmes here. I only got plastic up on two windows so far. The plastic in the kit is a bit easier to manage the the plastic warp you'd use for food, and using the hair dryer on it to smooth the wrinkles and make it taunt is kinda fun. But messing with the two-way tape is a pain and more than makes it something to procrastinate about.
Tomorrow I have to pick-up Brandon from school, so I'm not going to get back here until late. I'm serious contemplating stopping at the Barley House for a guinness after I get back, even though it will be well after 9 and I won't be able to get anything to eat. It will be Tuesday, after all. However, the last few Tuesdays have been hit and miss with the crowds; and while I'm sure they'll do just fine without my weekly contribution, I still feel compelled to stop. But maybe I'm just over-indulging my need to keep things "normal", to stick to my regular habits and schedule, even if it's just for it's own sake. Even if that's the case, I don't care.
