countdown
i woke up this morning realizing that my summer had suddenly found itself with only 5 more days, indicating i should seriously consider how to make the most of it.
so i proceded to waste the entire day. didn't see any one.
why must i sabotage my life so often?
i admit, it felt good to get my room fixed up days early instead of waiting till crunch time
and it was nice to play cards with my 80 year old grandpa,
but if i wasn't going to leave the house i should have dedicated an otherwise wasted day to chores or some tangible form of progress,
like noticing i am out of clean pants and doing something about it, instead of only shoving my laundry pile further into a corner.
there is a stack of library books in my room, but i found myself addicted to ryan's summer reading instead.
there are so many people i've only seen once (or not at all!) this whole summer and--this being the point in a weekend when things calm down and people have free time--today would have been perfect for at least making some phone calls, but...
i leave friday morning, so the conclusion:
i'm busy all day tuesday, wednesday morning, and some parts (but i don't know which parts) of tomorrow,
but thursday, wednesday afternoon, and the other parts of tomorrow, i'm going to be on the ball.
*self-affirming yeah!*
