Smart and Responsible

That's how I feel today. I knew the answer to every question I was asked at work today without having to double-check myself, and as of right now, every obligation I have accepted in the past week has been dealt with.

Of course, my apartment still needs to be cleaned, but I did all I had time for this week, so I really can't feel bad about this.

There's a sad part to this story, too. Yesterday, after work, I went and got that manecure I mentioned (I'm a little disappointed with it, honestly; I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this wasn't it), thinking I might, afterward, go see The Dark Knight. I emerged from the salon, looked at my clock and thought to myself, "I don't have time."

What? I, of all people, don't have time for Batman? A year ago, I'd have kicked myself for even saying such a thing accidentally! This is a travesty! Is this what I was so excited about with the being a grown-up and self-improvement and stuff? I want my carefree youth back. You can have my suits and my furniture.

Seriously, though, it was disappointing to realize that. I mean, I managed to make time for Iron Man, and I'm not really all that big a fan of Iron Man (though I am a fan of Robert Downey, Jr.). Things are about to slow down soon, though. I'll deal.
