Today I was me, predictably me.
Let me digress:  yesterday I was pummeled by work, exhausted, and ready to check out.
Today is predictably me, I'm exactly like I always am after a rough day of work, how you would expect someone to be after their Paris room office is stolen - me.

Hence, I'm writing this and not one of the other 197 things I could be doing
Finishing my book - not that I need to read much.  Already this year I have far exceeded my reading goals, in 2012 so far I have read:

The Hunger Games Trilogy
The Help
Humanae Vitae (finished in 2012)
Blink
The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest (90% finished)

For a total of 6+ book so far in 2012.  My goal for the whole year is 12.  We all know that I like reading, but this rate has to slow down.   I have too many other things to do.

Catching up on TV shows.  I only watch about 87 shows regularly.  Good thing they aren't all on at the same time.  Ok, so it's not 87 - more like 20.  Still.

Writing.  I try to work on writing everyday.  Even if it's just prayers - I got that from The Help.  It helps me to focus my attention and I don't lose my place as easily.  And writing helps some things to sink in.  Which is probably good.  I still cringe when i write the part about Michelle and Brian.  Apparently the goal is to do it until you stop feeling that way.  This could take the rest of my life.

Sewing.  haha, sounds dumb.  But i did get that sewing machine for Christmas and Stace and I are getting ready to start on our quilts - I gotta make sure they don't look dumb when they come out, which requires a little bit of practicing first.  I haven't really used a sewing machine since I was in the 8th grade.  I need the practice.  But i'm super excited about our project.  I'm such a craft dork.

Working out.  I'm good at this.  But it's hard to always have the two hours a day I need.  But I know that time is required if I want to reach my ultimate goal of 145.  I was only 20 lbs away.  Then the slippage happened, but I'll be back there soon. It's easier now that the bar exam is over.  I spent the last couple of weeks up to the exam eating pretty terribly.

Anyway, those are just some of things I could be doing right now instead of wasting my time here with nonsense.  Or I guess I could be setting some fires.  Not today.  Maybe next time.
