you know you're over-extended when your to-list includes "sleep"

Things I did not manage to get accomplished this week

The to-do list that was supposed to be finished by last weekend

Slug-proof my garden

See my girlfriend

Call my mother

Catch up on my email

Start my mix-tape

Cook snails

Clean off my desk

Run

Get enough sleep

Things I did manage to get accomplished this week

Remembered to take all the proper medications at the proper times in the proper amounts

Finish my first week of pushups

Fill the freezer

Get my resume in for new job

Renew the mortgage

Got 50% of the way through everything on the to-do list for last week

Clean the bedroom & bathroom enough to host Australians

Work a six-day week

Not fall asleep on my desk

Not hit Axel

Not hit anybody else

I've decided I'm designating August as an appointment-free month. No doctors, no specialists, no tests. If it falls off I'll just staple it back on until September.

Duct tape has actual medical applications, and would cause less tissue damage than staples. It would probably be more effective as well.

But it doesn't have that satisfying *chunk* sound.

No, it doesn't, but it does cause a verysatisfying scream upon removal, plus I can get it it in nifty prints from Archie McPhee.
