Well, that was pointless

What a dreadfully useless day. Basically the sum total of my productivity was limited to breakfast with Liz and Julian and taking them to the airport. Wow. I had sort of fantasized about taking advantage of being holed up in the apartment due to the freaky March snowstorm and doing all of my homework and memorizing my act before the weekend even got here. But, alas and alack. Instead I spent the day distracted by one shiny object after another, none of which I can particularly recall at the moment. At least the front steps are nice and cleared of snow because of me. Other than that, nada, nothing, zip, zilch, zero. Tough to accomplish not owning a video game console any longer. I thought about the court case I am writing a paper on. I thought about doing some cleaning. Hell, I even thought about walking to the liquor store for beer, but didn't even end up doing that. (Did walk to the convenience store for cigarettes and snacks - that was an adventure and a half in this weather)

Apparently in my world calm=lazy. After a couple of tense weeks for no good reason, I suddenly started feeling this sense of peace a couple of days ago. A serenity that I can explain no more than the anxiety that preceded it. Makes me wonder if something was going on with someone I'm close to. Sometimes the empathy kicks into overdrive and I can't explain it. But whatever the reason, I'm sort of wishing I was still in stress ball mode just so I'd get some things accomplished. (Oh, and I'm sure I'm going to get loads of work done this weekend! Right.)
