: Sitting down at the begining of this week, getting my 'priorities' in order by doing the ever notorious to-do list that supposedly helps me get through my week, I came to this conclusion, I am sick to death of following some stupid list of things I pressure myself into doing. Following a list of things that only a super human could accomplish without strain, all to fullfill some sort of anal retentive, sadistic person's (myself) unrealistic goals of a successful week. All the while completely setting myself up purposely to fail. So I decided to come up with a different type of list, one I know I can complete with ease. One I know isn't setting me up to fail....here it is:
: MY LIST OF THINGS I DON'T HAVE TO DO:
: 1. Eat peas or beets (I hate them)
: 2. Drive on the wrong side of the road
: 3. Run 3 miles
: 4. Wake up early tomorrow
: 5. Make my bed
: 6. Do any more homework....ever
: 7. Be with children for 2 whole days....unless I WANT to be
: 8. Paperwork on the weekends
: 9. Lie naked in a bathtub full of roaches
: 10. Dive head first into a pool of chewing tobacco spit
: 11. Bite the head off of a live gopher.
: 12. Lick the inside rim of a toilet bowl.
: 13. Lick a cat's butt thoroughly
: 14. Drink a gallon of used hot-dog water
: 15. Lie on a bed of nails
: 16. Learn to play piano
: 17. Walk on hot coals
: 18. Run down the street naked (Thank God)
: 19. Jump out of an airplane
: 20. Hold my breath till my face turns blue
: -- Wow, how good it feels to know I have been successful at not fulfilling any of the things on my list, yet I have still not failed... God is good!
You DEFINATLY need a vacation!
