My boring life

I realized last night why I don't post about much other than food, health, and work. I don't have time for much more.
5:10 Leave work (almost on time)
5:25 Get to Whole Foods
5:45 Finish grocery shopping (short trip)
6:30 Arrive home, talk to [livejournal.com profile] azure_armand
7:00 Take short, much-needed nap
7:30 Begin cooking dinner (Sichuan Green Beans from Cooks Illustrated)
8:30 Finish cooking dinner, eat while watching the rest of Dead Man Walking
10:30 Go to bed, read for a while
There really wasn't anything else. I guess we could have not watched the movie but really... blah.

I'm totally in the same boat. Except add wedding planning to my weekends.
I get up at 6 every morning for work now, which means to get 8 hours of sleep, I have to be in bed by 10. If I head straight home from work, then I get about 4.5 hours in my evening to eat, clean, hang out, prep for the next day, play with cat, talk to Dr. X, etc.

There just doesn't seem to be enough time in my world right now.

Feh. It's true, there's not enough time. I'm glad that at least this weekend I did get to do other things (including talk to you!).

I think making szechuan and watching movies sounds fun. Maybe not exciting on a grand scale. But fun.

Yeah, I guess it was. I just wished I could have fit some more in. Like sewing. I wanted to sew but I feel like in any given weekday evening, I can either sew or cook...

You get to ... read in bed...

Another Adventure Vicariously Lived (tm). Thank-you.

I am not ungrateful. Even though my days may be kinda boring they are still, in part, mine. Some day you will get to read in bed, again!

Actually, I'm just chortling a little now, too. I'm allowed to... read on the job. :-O No, it's true!
