the to-do list that stretches into oblivion

i'm not even going to make one this weekend. i give up. there's too much to do.

and i'm too bushed to do it.

last night i got home, under the impression that i'd be doing one of two things--hitting the laundromat w/ dan and then partaking of my new fave wine, a rosemount shiraz, that's just divine and would take me off-planet after drinking it, or heading down to lakeville for some italian telly with tangee and nicole. however...i got home and we'd been invited to d and c's for gaming.

hadn't been in a while so saddled up the ol' dice and headed over.

now, i love d and c immensely. they're some of the most generous people i know, and some of the most caring, too. but i was sooooooooooooo bored last night that i thought i was going to nap leaning up against the stereo speaker. the concept of the game was fun--you're zero level, you have a profession before you become an actual character class--ie, i started out as a seamstress but am on my way to becoming a rogue and something like a spy. however...the downfall to this is that if i stay in character, it makes it nearly impossible for me to advance into another class. why would a seamstress actually get involved with a group of theives when she's lived a perfectly respectable life till now? d wasn't helping much, in the six hours of gaming i gathered a little gossip and then kind of got forced onto a ship, and then became a seamstress on another island, government employed.

i'm just waiting for dan's spygame, which he's hoping to start soon-ish. he was thinking next friday but i kind of put the kaibash on that due to next friday being the sg-1 season premiere, and be damned if i'm missing that!!!

so we got home at around 230, in bed by 3, and then at 808 i wake up. wide awake. whole day stretching before me. in my head i'm thinking of all the stuff i have to do, and i can't see the end of the list.

nor do i want to. it might be kind of amusing to get up one day and having nothing to do, but i doubt it'll happen anytime soon. i guess life is just one long laundry list of complaints, things to do, and joys. so a quick jot shows me this:

clean up kitchen
take out garbage
look at the snowflakes
take a nap
read my book
relax
clean out the upstairs bedroom
and the garage
and then run to thrift store and drop extraneous crap off.

sleep, eat, repeat. oblivion.
