One-armed paper hangers and other busy people

I never did get that joke. If you’ve got one arm, isn’t hanging wallpaper pretty much impossible?

Anyway, I’ve got two arms but only eighty hours in a day and maybe you know how that goes. And I’m barely making progress on any of my to-do lists.

Don’t you hate that, when you spend hours and hours on things that aren’t on your to-do list? Like vacuuming. I just spent a couple hours vacuuming the whole house, but was that on my list? Nooooo!

I guess life’s like that, but I don’t have to like that.

You know what else I don’t like? Telemarketers! Verizon just called to offer Internet service, which isn’t available to me yet, but could Pa Bell have figured that out before he called me? Nooooo! I know the guy is only doing his job. But as it turns out he’s not doing it very well. He spent five minutes talking to me and he did learn that it’s nice and sunny here in Vermont, or wherever I am. But other than that it was a complete waste of time for both of us.

Well at least I got something to bitch about! :)
