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

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

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

Geoffrey Brewer Date: 6/19/2020 8:55:00 AM 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.....
