I'm trying this thing where I only schedule two things a day. Like work + one social commitment on weekdays. Or work + one theatre commitment on weekdays. And then only 2 things per weekend day, such as 1) help friends move + 2) get beers with long lost friend. I'm already having difficulty with it, but I'm hoping that soon I'll be in this habit so I can only schedule one thing per weekend day and then maybe in the future I will find myself with entire weekend days with nothing on the schedule.
Chores don't count, of course. Then again I grossly overestimate how long it takes me to do chores. After taking my clean clothes out of the dryer yesterday, I groaned at how long it would take me to fold and hang them all and put them away. I considered putting it off for later, but in the end made myself just do it. Like Nike told me. And you know what? It took me an entire 12 minutes. Twelve. I was dreading 12 minutes of work.
Tonight's commitment after work is seeing my therapist. Then: chores, which include going to Target (actually enjoyable) and then cleaning Clint's tank once I get home. I know he'll appreciate it and I appreciate him, so it'll all be worth it for my beloved pet fish. To quote Hagrid in HP 3, "People can be stupid about their pets."
