Weak End

Tonight, as I sat down at my computer to type up Monday's post, I thought, "Boy, it's been a hectic weekend." Then I thought about it and realized that it really wasn't. I got almost nothing accomplished and was relatively lazy, but somehow feel like it was busy. Here's what I did:

Saturday:

6:15 AM: Woke up, grabbed Diet Coke, went to computer.
6:16 AM – 8:30 AM: Read blogs, responded to comments, replied to emails, chatted, worked.
8:30 AM – 10:00 AM: Played Tony Hawk: Downhill Jam on the Nintendo Wii.
10:00 AM – 12:00 PM: Replied to emails, responded to comments, read blogs, chatted, worked.
12:00 PM – 3:00 PM: Showered, went to Chick Fil-A. Got two chicken sandwiches, no pickles, extra mayo, waffle fries, chicken nuggets, large Diet Coke and Cookies and Cream milkshake. Ate lunch while watching Veronica Mars.
3:00 PM – 5:30 PM: Swam in the pool.
5:30 PM – 8:00 PM: Ordered pizza from Hungry Howies. Watched part of Caddyshack and all of Fletch.
8:00 PM – 9:30 PM: Replied to emails, responded to comments, read blogs, chatted, worked.
9:30 PM – 11:00 PM: Went and picked my wife up from the airport.
11:00 PM: Came home and went to bed.

Sunday:

7:00 AM: Woke up, grabbed Diet Coke, went to computer.
7:01 AM – 9:00 AM: Wrote Sunday post, read blogs, responded to comments, replied to emails, chatted, worked.
9:00 AM – 9:15 AM: Helped my wife put on suntan lotion and get ready to go to the beach with her girlfriends.
9:15 AM – 11:00 AM: Back to the computer for work and blogging.
11:00 AM – 2:00 PM: Tony Hawk.
2:00 PM – 3:00 PM: Watch TV with my wife, eat sub and nasty fries from local place.
3:00 PM – 6:00 PM: Go back to work on the computer while my wife naps.
6:00 PM – 8:00 PM: Watch "Hard Candy." Fucking amazing movie!
8:00 PM – 10:00 PM: Watch "Reefer Madness." Hilarious movie starring Kristen Bell.
10:00 PM – 1:00 AM: Read blogs, respond to comments, write post.

So, all told, that's only about 16 hours of computer time, which means that maybe 10-12 of that was actual work. That's pretty pathetic for a weekend. I really need to buckle down and work harder. It was just so gorgeous out that it was hard to get motivated.

Today, though, I'll get plenty of work done. It may be a holiday in some parts of the world, but at my company, it's business as usual.
