Work


Dear Jade,

I have work to do.
It’s not work that I want to do, but it’s definitely work that I want to be done doing.
Today I’m going to do work.

Ok.

Well, I’m a little hungry right now so I should probably get something to eat because I can’t work on an empty stomach.

Go to the caf...
Get some toast with peanut butter and hon...
Crap, I got honey on my sweater. That’s ok, I’ll just put on another one.

...

That sweater was really the perfect thickness for the current temperature of my room. Alright, I’ll just do laundry now. I can work while my sweater’s in the wash.

Go downstairs.
Forget laundry card.
Fetch laundry card.

Ok. Do work.

First I’ll check my email...
Check my facebook...
Check your facebook...
Oh shit. I have to do work.

Oh would you look at that! Laundry’s done.

Go get laundry...
Fold laundry...
Spend 15 minutes looking for the last sock that’s mysteriously disappeared...

Ok. Work.

Open Word Document.
Title: “Hobbes and Locke”
 “A comparison between Hobbes and Locke”
“Hobbes and Locke: A comparison”
...
...
...
Oh man, my stomach just growled. It is getting close to dinnertime. If I eat dinner now, I’ll have the whole evening to do work. I’ll work for like 8 hours straight.

Ok, dinner.
Om nom nom nom nom.
Alright, work.

“Hobbes and Locke were foundational figures in Western political theory.”
“Hobbes and Locke are foundational figures in Western political theory.
“Thomas Hobbes and John Locke are foundational figures in Western political theory.”
“Thomas Hobbeseesewwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”

Oh crap I drifted off. I’m really sleepy, I shouldn’t have had such a big dinner.
Maybe I should take a nap. NO. I have to do work.

But I’ll be so much more productive if I’m well rested...
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

ALARM.
Snooze.
ALARM.
Snooze.
ALARM
Ok, ok, I have to do work.

Check my email...
Check my facebook...
Go on Youtube...
Funny dog...
Funny baby...
Not-so funny baby...
Google “cutest babies”...
WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME I HAVE TO DO WORK.

“Hobbes and Locke disagreed on many things.”

Text message.
Someone wants to talk. Friendship > School.
Talk.
Talk.
Talk.
Talk.
Talk.

Oh shit, it’s 3 in the morning.
Well, I’m not going to be productive at this time of night, so I might as well hit the hay.
Tomorrow I’m definitely going to do work.

Love,
Cindy
