My quest to be productive today has been less than successful. Here’s what I’ve done so far:
Stayed in bed until 9 even though I was awake at 6, reading blogs on my phone and harassing the dogs.
Went for a run with my dog, leaving the boyfriend’s dog home alone, crying pathetically at the door. The run was pretty short because I’m not really a runner and I thought I was going to die, but I figure just leaving the house is an accomplishment, right?
Made (and ate) a bagel with cream cheese and sliced tomatoes for breakfast.
Watched the Daily Show and Colbert Report on Hulu
Got very excited because the mailman brought the stuff I ordered from Amazon last week: bike lights and a cable lock for my bike, a cool wooden version of Shut the Box (the funnest dice game ever!), and a new guitar method book. Exciting!
Attached my new bike lights to my bike.
Played several games of Shut the Box against myself. I won every time. It was pretty boring.
Surfed craigslist and various other websites looking for a ‘real’ job.
Sat like a lump on the couch being bored.
And here are the things that I’ve thought about doing: Practicing guitar (to try out the new method book), sewing (I’ve got at least a dozen half finished projects I should really be working on), going for a bike ride along the beach, going to the library to get a library card and check out some books so I don’t have to stare at the TV anymore, putting pictures in frames and hanging them on the walls, organizing the boyfriend’s desk because he clearly isn’t going to do it anytime soon and it’s making me a little crazy, and dropping off resumes at more restaurants in the hopes that someone will hire me and give me a reason to get off this damn couch!
