To tell the truth, I’m not really bored. Just trying to put off doing things that I need to do and my back feels better laying on the bed with my laptop rather than sitting or standing while doing the same procrastination.The others would have me watching TV and shifting about the room, but this way makes it easier to rationalize that I’m not quite specifically doing ‘nothing’.
Just got back from a 2 week drinking binge in Manila and started unpacking. Its all over the bed and I don’t have the motivation to put everything away.
So I started doing some laundry – got so far as getting it into a pile.
When I left a few weeks ago, I had been up drunk all night and decided to take off to Manila and then out of the country. 5am and steaming ahead are, of course, the best times to make such decisions. And I did leave… surprised they let me on the plane. The point is that I packed my bag a few times, I think.- I base this on the unholy disarray of my place when I returned today. Its bad. Whats possibly worse is that I still managed to pack all the wrong stuff into my single backpack.
So I started cleaning the room today, after all its certainly easier than washing the tomatoes that I bought this evening… but I’m getting ahead of myself. About 5 minutes into it, it seemed a good idea to head down to the dive shop and say HI… but hold on, I should spray some bug-be-gone under and behind everything for good measure. It’ll clear out b4 I get back.
The trip took me past the dive shop and to the ATM and onward to immigration to rectify the reason I didn’t leave the country…. oh, hello Mrs *-*, my passport, hmmm, I seem to have forgotten it… Back to the room.
Now to the tomatoes. Looked at them and moved the bag to the other side of the room. I’ll get to those again later. Man, that bug spray is still strong, I’ll open the bathroom door and window for airflow.
A few more drinks to relax from my stressful day of avoiding stress. hold on – looks like we had a long brownout while I was gone, time to clean the fridge. Empty the freezer re-freezable popscicles and put them in the bathroom sink. Ya know, I’ll clean this fridge later, I should get to the sari store for small food before they close. Come back and have strawberry & blueberry yogurt to unwind from the 2 minute walk.
Another drink to relax from yogurt eating efforts. While I’m just sitting here, I should look up how to contact every elected official in the US that I fall under, because we all know that firing off letters to government officials is best done after a bottle of Tanduay rhum.
About to take a shower to wash traveling grime away but there’s a retarded show on Cinemax called Ogre. Its bad, please don’t watch it – like I did – from beginning to end. Land lord interrupts said craptastic IQ lowering magic picture show and tells me she entered my place ’cause no-one had seen me and wanted to make sure I wasn’t rotting in the corner. Coolio. Thanks. I’m standing in a towel, can I please take a shower?
Ive got an idea! I should trim all the excess packaging and empty blisters from all the medications in my ditty bag. Ya know, nice and tidy!
That last was the only thing I’ve managed to complete so far… except for writing this, which is slightly fulfilling.
The tomatoes are still sitting in a bag on the other side of the room. I should go move them again.
There should be pie at the end of this.
