My life has been so boring of late, other than being published, that I don't really have a Satisfied Saturday 6. So I'm going to write some nuggets of wisdom (tongue very much in cheek) I've picked up this week instead. And when you stop making fun of me (which means you are invited to do so. LOL!) you can get an idea of how my week has gone.
1. When doing anything in the bathroom, always be aware of how close your head is to the tiled wall. The better to avoid smashing your forehead into it.
2. When trying to get into shape and lose weight, ordering massive quantities of (fried) chinese food is counter-productive.
3. If you are incapable of doing anything sensible before you've had coffee, spilling your full travel mug is a bad idea. And if you've spilt it after you've added the sugar, you can count on finding sticky spots all over your kitchen for days after you thought you cleaned it all up.
4. When you're on the phone with a friend who lives only a few miles away and she says it's just started raining, it's a good idea to go downstairs and close your car windows before the rain gets to your town. Especially if you ALSO saw rain on the local baseball TV broadcast AND on the news.
5. If you're trying to uncramp your shoulders, playing a video game for over 3 hours is a bad idea.
6. When you know that the writing site updates the page view count (and new publication announcements) in Pacific Daylight Time and you live in Eastern Daylight Time, checking the page 3 times before noon is a waste of time. Not to mention discouraging, even though you know it's not accurate.
Bonus silliest bit of "wisdom" this week: 5:45AM is way too early to be awake on my vacation. Hopefully I will not be up this early for the next two days of my vacation. Especially since it's my vacation so I am staying up later. Less sleep is counter-productive.
