Just another lazy liberal sort of day
Jul. 6th, 2011 07:48 pmI can't help it. I'm a liberal. Therefore, I clearly hate America and am lazy, wanting the government to support my lifestyle.
Let's have a look at my Wednesday, shall we?
1:15 AM Alarm went off. Got up, dressed, made my lunch, ate a bowl of cereal.
2 AM, went to work
I drove for seven and a half hours and unloaded a trailer for an hour and a half. I fueled a semi and parked it.
11:30 AM home from work, changed clothes
12 noon Weight watchers, down 2.6 lbs
Afternoon: spent quality time with my husband, checked in with Bun and Fairy, wrote some e-mails, edited and wrote.
5 PM: dinner
6 PM: writing
7 PM made muffins for tomorrow's breakfast as we are out of cereal.
Wrote
8 PM: bed with a CPAP machine on my face.
19 hour days. Yep, I'm a total slacker.
