Okay… I do know… but really, it doesn’t matter. The best thing in the world happened yesterday: My boss called off the weekly meeting. This is what yesterday was like for me:
9:00 am: Sit down at my desk and open my paper. That is right folks, I didn’t check my email, read any blogs, or surf ANY of the internet.
9:15 am: Tried finding references for my introduction.
9:30 – 11:42 am: Wrote the best three paragraphs of my LIFE. WITH. REFERENCES.
11:43 am: Frantically tried to find Porter so that we could go to lunch.
12:00 – 1 pm: Sat at lunch with Porter and my sister, thinking how I only wrote THREE FUCKING PARAGRAPHS to my 2000000 page introduction (yeah – it is more like 7 pages) and that my meeting with my boss was at 2:30!
1 – 2:00 pm: Frantically cut and paste things around in the introduction, maybe made a few new sentences.
2:01 pm: Checked my email for the first time today. Saw an email from the boss saying that this week’s meetings were CANCELLED!
2:02 – 4:45 pm: Checked rest of email, read blogs, and surfed the internet until I decided I was going to go to the gym, which made me realize that I didn’t have my ID to get into the gym, which then resulted in me going to the DofV (local coffeeshop) to do a little crochetting then dropping off goods to the Salvo because I moved and have been carrying around this crap in my car for about 4 months now and it is about damn time that I get it out of my trunk…
4:45 – 6:30 pm: Play racquetball with my sister, who insists that I will make a good player even if I did hit her TWICE with the ball while returning her serves.
Lessons learned yesterday:
- Dude, check your fucking email first thing in the morning, or you might try and bust out of your slacker-like natural state and try to actually get work done for a meeting that has been canceled! (just kidding)
- Racquetball is hard.
- MS stands for Machine Shop, which is where Porter lives these days.
- Don’t forget your ID card, or it will just lead to more slacking.
