Boy, did I get up with a list of things to do this morning. Laundry to finish, some teaching materials to sort through, clean up the house a little, and the biggie, help S.P. put up some electric fence. And I had HOURS to get it done before going back to pick up the kids. Just gotta check the e-mail, and a fast jump to MSN to see what's doing on the news...
Hey, look at that. MSN has a teaser for an $82,000 swimsuit. Better click on it...oh, it's a video. On StupidVideos. Oh no, I'm being sucked in! HELP MEEEE....
Holy crap, what happened? It's almost lunchtime. My foot's asleep and so is my ass. And all the wash is still there, and the mess, and everything else. StupidVideos stole my morning. It was insidious, the way it happened. First the swimsuit story. Then a ninja cat video. Then "The Evolution of Dance", part one AND two. Then it was just a blur of bad singing , flying body parts (bare and clothed), and bratty kids.
I kept telling myself, "Just one more, just one more. I can stop after this one.."
I remember saying that about beers in college, dates with guys I knew were no good, and the nanaimo bars left over from Christmas. Finally, I came to my senses with the one thing that could not be denied.
I had to pee.
Now I'm going to get busy on my to-do list. Nothing will stop me or slow me down! I just have to make a quick stop over at GreenJello's, and from there maybe go to Casey's, and a fast peek in at Keely's....

You got sucked into the computer vortex. It happens to me daily, so much that I have to avoid clicking on links from people's sites or I'll get sidetracked.....
ReplyDeleteMy ass falls asleep on a regular basis, too. I think it's bored with me spending too much time on the computer. It retaliates by becoming larger.
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling. I always tell myself, regardless what it is, "Just one more." Just one more game. Just one more minute. Just one more cookie. And so it begins. Ass fat. Numb ass fat when it's just one more of something. I can no longer control my Just One Mores.
