Laziness At It’s Best

Alternatively Titled: Why it’s sometimes okay to not shower for a day and live in sweatpants

I vowed, earlier this week to get things done. To be done with the final boxes sitting in our study, to have everything in for my grad school application (it is. They’re just claiming they haven’t received my second recommendation. Even though it was both mailed. And faxed.), to start blogging again. Once a day. Even if I’ve got nothing for you.

My typical day?

8:30-10:30a wake up. Timing depends on if I feel like being a complete lazy a-hole

10:30-12:30 check email, drink breakfast shake, watch Today Show and Martha. Read.

12:30-2:30 Shower, drop puppy off at daycare (if she’s going. Today she kept me company). Bring Hubs lunch.

2:30-6:00 run errands. meander around town. check email. Waste time on Tumblr.

6:00 begin contemplating dinner. Pick up Hubs at work (if he’s ready to be picked up). Pick up Pupski by 7p.

7:00-8:30ish dinner. Cooking, eating, cleaning.

8:30-whenever we get to bed - enjoy time with hubs. watching tv, unpacking, cleaning, reading whatever we want to do.

Things I need to add to the mix? Running. Writing. My NaNoWriMo is stuck at a nice 8500 words. No where near the 30k I should be at.

I figure, if for some unfortunate reason I don’t get into this…not so top tier masters program that everyone and their mother has told me I shouldn’t have a hard time getting into…I’ll start looking for a substitute teaching gig in December so I can hopefully get in in the fall. A pal of mine apparently applied for fall admission, they claimed they didn’t have everything, and he’s now starting in the spring. That’s worst case. I might add in some more freelance work if I can scrounge some up, but really? I’ve been sitting in the depths of unemployment for way too long. Since figuring out what I want to do in September, I really want to just get started. ASAP. Like…two months from now? I could be in classes again…and working! (I kind of really miss working – you know…human interaction) How bad ass would that be?

In happier news that does not involve me being a huge lump o’ laziness, the fabulousness that is Gals Guide has started the Fairfield County chapter page thanks to moi. Expect posts up soon. There’s an event thursday that I might hit up that I saw over on this blog and subsequently need to post about. I really want to get more regular about posting over there especially since I love the page and all the writers so much.

But really, I’ve gotta say, I’m struggling. See that schedule up there? It means i don’t have much to write about. So what do you, fabulous freaders, want to see here? Materialistic Mondays? Some recipes (I’ve been giving susie homemaker a run for her money)? Fashion Friday?  Give me some ideas! :)
