On Returning After a Week’s Vacation
- Use procrastination to convince myself that if I am unprepared for it, Monday morning will never arrive
- Read remainder of trashy romance novel
- Set alarm for 10 minutes early to tend to unruly mass of hair
- Fitfully sleep
- Awake to alarm; decide hair care is overrated and sleep for 15 more minutes
- Corral pets, make coffee, pack breakfast and lunch
- Arrive at Curves; hone my talent for shocking/entertaining the ladies there by saying whatever it is that pops into my head (This morning: “Why, ah declayah! Vivvy, get me mah salts, ah have the vapuhs!” and “It smells like a truck stop in here”), leading one to comment, “You never know WHAT you’re going to get.” Consider it makes exercising almost fun.
- Arrive at office, watch as carefully packed breakfast/lunch explodes all over my office door.
- Reconsider non-belief in Higher Power as potted plant still lives
- Fret about placement of apostrophe in title and spotty perioding in this checklist
- Reheat my coffee and prepare for the grind
