Patience Grasshopper…
I am, by nature, not a really patient person. I have urgency in my tone, and in my lists. I like to cross off lots of things. When I’m procrastinateing from one task (like writing an article) I’ll put other things on my list so I can cross them off and feel like, am idst my procrastination, that I’m still being massively productive.
ie
Initial To Do List
* KoreAm Article
* Laundry
By 6:30 PM the same day
* KoreAm Article
* Laundry
*Eat something healthy
*Sort through pens
*Take out garbage
*Hang jackets
*Restack magazines
*Empty dish washer
*Email Friends
*Call Dad
*Sort out social schedule for the following week
If it’s reallly bad, I’m adding stuff on the list like
Paint Toenails
Consolidate Lotions/Shampoos
In a pique of OCD this week, I now have organized all my buttons, paper clips, and lipsticks. I have an awful lot of lipsticks.
And you know what? That article still ain’t done yet.
Yet.
I’ll keep a short list of things to do today.
One that’s a roll over from last week is getting my two computers both up and running/networked again.
I’m still waiting for a friend to respond with his availaibility to walk me through this last piece. Patience, grasshopper. Life is what it is.
