Got Got Got Got No Time

Time.

That elusive measurement we use to count the days gone by.

Wait...what? I think I lapsed into Robert Frost for a moment...Or Scarlett O'Hara.

Anyway, lately I've noticed that I'm steadily falling behind. With friends (which I miss) and with housework (which I don't), and a few things in between. No matter how many activities I try to squeeze into a day, I'm constantly coming up short. That doesn't even count the ones I'm forgetting either, because that's happening more often than I'd care to admit. I narrowly missed traveling to Pittsburgh* with my boss (not the Hillbilly) today for a 2 day conference. The first class I have to teach is early next week and I have to busy myself being all productive and stuff, rather than schmoozing people I most likely will never speak with again.

This morning was the first time that I've seen the morning sun in over a month. I'm missing my usual AC/DC twice a day fixes. I can't even manage to find time to take my car in for a minor repair. Sheesh. I need an assistant. Or at least a calendar I'll really update.

More Time.... I think that's what I'll ask for this Christmas.


*whew!

Lmao I didn't know that. I knew they were trying to dehydrate us on long flights, but not kill us with Mice.

It's because I'm half dead by the time he comes on. I forget much of what I see.

Can you also ask Santa for a little more time in the day for Mandy? I seem to be coming up short too. Maybe this just happens as you get older... yucky.

I got older one time but I didn't loose any time. Just friends, sleep and my desire for mass quanities of alcohol.

Mandy: I will definitely do that. Maybe we could get some sort of package deal. :) I think the older we get the more stuff we have to do..until we hit 50 then we have more 'leisure' time to drive around and wear pastels.

Brandon: Friends and Sleep I agree with, but I think it's made me want mass quantities of alcohol...even though I don't act on that urge. A couple of shots before going in to work sounds like a fine idea some days.

I used to have a couple shots or so before going to school. That helped.
