And then there are days like this one
What I Should Be Doing Today:
At Work:
-Working (This is a “summary” task, purposely provided without detail)
At Home:
-Dishes (needed to be done yesterday, and the day before, but somehow managed to make it to today’s to-do list anyway)
-Laundry (see note for dishes)
-Other Household Cleaning (see note for Dishes and Laundry)

What I am actually doing today:
At Work:
-So far… Working, which when compared to what I need to be doing at home seems to turning “What I’m actually doing” into “Wasting Time at Work (when there are far more things needing to be done at home.)”
-Also overhearing two men in the kitchen, one giving the other a complete dissertation on the linguistic evolution of “d’jeat” and why it is understood to mean, “Did you eat?” or “Have you eaten?” as the other nods knowingly and makes appropriate grunting noises.
-Find it amusing to consider they both could be grunting and it would at least be interesting.
-Smile fakely at the two of them, as I heat my nutritious and calorie-conscious boxed/frozen/microwaved meal claiming also to be delicious. Think to myself that they both creep me out.
-Flee kitchen before visible creeped-out shudder is seen by men in kitchen.
-Eat freshly microwaved meal. Find it tastes like cardboard. Finish it anyway. Have a mint.
-Blog. I am on my lunch anyway.

What I Would Rather Be Doing Today:
At Work:
-*censored to protect job security*
At Home:
-*censored to protect illusion of sanity, but admitting it might involve some sitting, staring, and weeping, mostly having to do with the censored part of what I’d rather be doing at work thing, but also because I just feel like it.*
-Also have movie night with kiddo, because he has begun dissolving into tiny puddles of tears these days from missing his dad.
-Watch last night’s episode of ‘Alias’ because even though I find the show to have gone off on the other end of ridiculous, I still watch, and I still want to know what happened. It was the season finale, after all.
