Priorities

I’m supposed to be hitting the books (starting with intermediate Spanish on Saturday), but instead I’m getting sidetracked by cooking, vacuuming (of all things) and doing other chores that I would never do on a Monday (and probably Tuesday to Saturday) night.

I tend to do the same on mornings when I’m already running late for work. All of a sudden I have time to pack away things that have been lying around for days - the FT I dropped next to the couch on Sunday, the pairs of shoes that are resting in front of the couch (I’ve been tripping over them for days), the mugs standing around in little groups. Then at the last minute I’m not happy with what I’m wearing and have to change my whole outfit.

Then there’s also a new novel I started reading…
