To choose time is to save time -- Francis Bacon 1561-1626; British Philosopher, Essayist, Statesman.

 

Time is a dressmaker specializing in alterations -- Faith Baldwin.

 

 

            Yes, today’s episode is all about time.  The time we give to each other and the time we waste.  Mostly the time we cause others to waste.  Oh well, you get the picture.  I am totally useless when I am at home.  I get nothing accomplished unless absolutely required.  Who cares?  The only ones here, other than myself of coarse, are Diva the dog and Sebastian the cat. 

            Today my house is a pit fit for the garbage dump.  I have been sick for several days and not feeling up to much.  What am I doing now, instead of chores?  Sitting here wasting time, duh!!!  It seems a much more agreeable endeavor than attacking the mountain of dishes in the kitchen or the laundry that is calling my name from the basement.

 

            PET PIEVE TIME.  I am a Virgo.  One thing that is a major problem for us is people being late.  I am not late.  9 out of 10 times I am 20 minutes early.  I even carry a book in my purse specifically for this occurrence.  This is my time to squander and I do it willingly.  PLEASE note, this is not the same thing as being late meeting with me.  That is costing me my own time and makes me cranky. 

            I know I’m anal about this.  It’s been pointed out to me several times and I acknowledge it freely.  My BF, April, has now found a way around this.  She doesn’t say I will be there at 10 o clock.  She agrees to meet me at 10ish.  Fine.  This lets me know it isn’t a concrete, set time and I can understand this.  She finds my quirks hysterical, but there you have it.  These oddities are mine and mine alone.  HA.  You can’t HAVE THEM.  Mahwahahahahaha. 

 

            I am tentatively starting this new job.  My boss has a habit of not giving me a schedule ahead of time or of saying he will be back at a certain time and be an hour or so late.  He can’t really help this.  He is out doing carpet cleaning or what ever at a client’s house and things happen.  I am not angry over it.  It would make my life easier with a set schedule, which I’m told I will get when I go full time.  April thinks it is shocking that I have dealt with it for over a week now.  She didn’t know I had the patience.

Like my father always said, he wouldn’t cross the road to wait in line if they were handing out $100.00 bills.  I hate waiting and I can’t be the only one.  This is my rant for the day, now that I have the energy to have one.  Love to all.

Peace Out

 

 

 

 

Oh I hear you about the being home part and not getting anything done. I've been home from uni since early February by now and I have not managed to get a thing for my two research papers done. Instead I waste my time writing, relaxing doing anything but working on what I should be working! grrr

I am terribly lazy...but also, in cases of meetings i'm terribly on time always. I've only been late to school like once or twice in the entire 13 years of highschool (and both times with good reason)...I hate being late and I hate others being late.
But then...when I need to leave in the mornings for uni I'm always close to being late to catch my train! LOL I know, I'm a torn, weird person.

Yeah I know what you mean about being on time. I am also a Virgo and it drives me right up the wall not to mention pi$$ me off. I am early for work every day, well... unless the weather is bad. Even then I try to leave the house earlier so I am not late. I drive everyone around me batty, hehe. Oh well, I suppose we all have our own little quirks.

As your BF and the mystery they call Scorpio...I reserve the right to continue making appointments on a "ISH" basis and making fun of all of your endearing quirks...not to mention a few that aren't as endearing! :o LMAO
