My Way of Getting Started...

The following is a true story. Partial dramatization only.

So as I lay in bed last night trying to fall asleep I thought about how unproductive my day was. My excuse was “It's the day after Christmas, I needed to rest”. So I decided that today would go something like this...

Oh yes! I am gonna get up earllllly. It's only 2 am now so I can be up by 9!!! Oh this will be so great!! I will make some coffee and check my Facebook while the coffee is brewing. I will drink said coffee and continue to FB. Following that I will go upstairs, tidy up the bathroom and put a load of laundry in. Then I will clean the living room, so that it no longer looks like a tornado went through it. There will actually be room to sit for more than 2 people!!! I will gather up all the dishes and procede to the kitchen and clean off the table so we can have a nice sit down dinner. Also I have to return the neighbor's DS charger I borrowed and told them I would return as soon as it was done charging. Lily will come home at some point and then we will have a joyous reunion!!! We will play with all the Christmas stuff and laugh and have a great time!!Yay!! I am sooooo excited about my plans. I am gonna be SuperHouseWifeMom To The Max!!!

Next morning...Reality.

Alarm goes off at 9. I get up and pee. Stumble downstairs and look around. Ugh no way...Get some lemonade and return to said bed. Wake up at 1245. I guess I have to get up and do stuff.

Stumble downstairs, try not to wake up Zak while getting to the kitchen. Sit down and light a cig. Ugh I'm exhausted from 10 hours of sleep. I need to relax just a little more. I deserve it. But I should make some coffee. I need that for sure. Oh man! The coffee pot needs cleaned. Darn it. I need to sit a minute. It's been a long weekend. Check FB and smoke cigs til like 2. Still no coffee and I've only finished my Farmville duties.

Zak is up at this point and I am out of cigs. I want to ask him to go get them for me, but that would be so lazy of me and I would feel bad watching him make his way up the street in the frozen tundra of Windsor. So I put by big girl panties on and decide to brave the cold myself. As I am leaving, I see my neighbor out shoveling...avoid eye contact cuz I forgot to return the DS charger. Drive to Rutters for cigs, because it's too cold out and too much snow...Rutters is a block away and the snow is mostly melted at this point, but in my head it's like Minnesota or something. I can barely see out of the windshield because it's covered with salt and dirty snow water. It's cool til the sun shines on it and then BLINDNESS!!! Augh I'm gonna drive into a parked car!!! But I manage to get safely to Rutters and back.

Upon returning home I apparently park in the parking spot my neighbor just shoveled out for her lawyer. Discuss this situation w/her and offer to move car. She says no and I'm sure at this point I am supposed to say “No I will move, it's no big deal”. But I'm lazy so I just shrug and walk away. Now I'm paranoid that my neighbor is suing me for some reason. I ponder this through my head and come to the conclusion that I should be ok.

More FB cuz I can't stop! Omg what is wrong w/me? Why can't I be an adult? Why do I feel it's more important that my virtual life be in order, while my real life is in shambles? The guilt starts to weigh heavy on me, but I continue to play w/my Frontierville.

Want to know what is really pathetic? My phone is shut off because I am too lazy to drive to the bank to deposit money. I needed to get ahold of Jeremy to see what time he is dropping Lily off. Luckily he is on FB so I can message him. I don't even have to move from my current spot to get the house phone!! How lucky am I?! Oh no!! My luck takes a turn for the worse and he needs me to pick her up. Dammit!!!

Zak wants to know what is for dinner? Shit what time is it? Think about what we have in the house. Leftover stromboli fixins, but no dough...Well I decide I am a cooking genius and attempt to make my own dough. It all went quite pretty well ( my hands looking like I was the sticky taffy monster from Scooby Doo kept it from going quite well) until the rising part...Zak had a super awesome plan of making it rise faster by putting it in the toaster oven on warm.

Well the stromboli is now gonna be a pizza due the the partial risen/partially baked dough. I have to mush that into a somewhat rectangle form, while Zak keeps picking pieces out of it and eating it. Telling him we will get worms does not seem to make him want to stop. Threatening to shove the baking pan down his throat does.

So the stromboli pizza wasn't too bad. While eating it we watch some Star Trek. Corey shows up and more laziness and Trek ensues. I can't stand the thought of leaving the house, so I send Zak and Corey to get Lily. Yay!! I have more time to finish my Cityville. Oh man I gotta take a shower I can't stand the smell of myself. And somehow it seems that I need to be clean when Lily gets home. I don't know why that seems to make sense in my head.

I shower quickly because it was cold and also because I was afraid a rapist/murderer was gonna break into the house. Dress quickly and run downstairs for the same reason.

Well so about this time I started this blog. That was 3ish hours ago and I am only done the second proofread. Probably because I shittily typed this to save and edit later so I could farm. Oh and I made a beach collage too. It made me feel warmer for a little bit.

And as for the coffee I finally just reheated yesterday's and that worked just fine. Beach collage is attached in hopes it makes you feel warmer too!! <3
