Decisions, Decisions

Which pair of shorts to wear today What color T-shirt best romps around and plays Should I sleep in 'til eight, eight-thirty, or nine How about 9:30, Central Daylight Time... Hmm. It's ten already. To heck with breakfast Before you know it, the sun'll be heading west Think I'll mosey out back and catch a few rays What a way to start another lazy summer's day... Huh? I have a job to do? The toilet needs cleaning? Oh, well. From useful work I thought I was weaning Alright. OK. I'm on it. Give me about half an hour Then it'll be time for my morning shower... Ah! Nothing like luxuriating, using up all the hot H2O So much for the laundry in the washer. That's the way it goes And now, let me see. Oh, my! It's nearly one! Time for lunch. And then my morning will be done... As you see, I've got it really rough When the tough got going They left me behind ~ America's #1 Cream-Puff

Sounds luxurious and fun to me.

Yes, it's fun for a day or two. Not the lifestyle for a Type A like me, however... though at least I've learned to indulge myself... more than my wife ever thought possible. Gershon New Man

Funny you asked (What's happening to me?)… I've felt liberated lately from the limits and shackles we tend to impose on ourselves, just kind of free to 'do it.'... Also, I think getting a new, speedy computer with a glitch-free keyboard really has helped a lot too. Now my fingers can keep up with my thoughts, which tend to race. Thanks, Arturo! :) gw

Ah! How true. I must take control of my life. But I should consider and analyse first. Pretty soon I’ll start considering, but meanwhile.....

No fun/pun intended, but your consideration must come before your analysis (Slide those two words together fast). Remember to seal the cup tightly and place it in the box provided... lol... ~ Dr. Wolf
