I'm trying a new technique that will hopefully result in a dramatic increase in my overall productivity. Every night before I go to bed, I'm going to write a list of what I need to do the next day and put it on my nightstand. My Youtube crush Alex Day does it, and he seems pretty productive and well adjusted. Or maybe he just appears to be like that because he has a British accent.
Anyways, I've been finding it remarkably easy to get lost in the lazy days of summer. Freelancing does that to people I guess. So does Netflix Instant Play. But I think a little bit of structure and direction is good, so I have a list on some graph paper by my bed. Tomorrow I need to finish compressing boxes in the garage so they can be recycled, sweep said garage, call someone back for an interview for an article I'm working on and hope I don't get their voicemail again, leave for a doctor's appointment at 3:30, and if I have any time at all in between these things, I'll work on my Division 1 essay. This is basically something that my granola artsy crunchy school has us do to evaluate our first year at school and discuss what we want to do in the future. I have about a sentence so far, and I'll probably scrap it in favor of something else that makes me sound like less of a spaz.
I hope that my grandparents who read this blog are still with me after I dropped that slang bomb just then.
So hopefully by tomorrow I'll have a semi-clean garage, pages full of interview notes, and a new arm attached to my side so I can dangle things in front of my cat, drink tea, and flip through my mom's "Oprah" magazine at the same time (that's what the doctor's appointment is for.)
Oy vey that was not a good joke.
