Some Random Questions

[serious crayons]

43. What should you being doing now?  I try not to "should" on myself.  But it would be good if I empty and fill the dishwasher before going to bed.  Other than that, what I'm doing is just right.

Good answer, posterformerlyknownasguinea-effin-pig!

I wish I weren't constantly thinking I should be doing something other than whatever it is I actually am doing. When I finally write my book (which I should be working on now, though at this moment I also should be reading the book for which my review is due in a few days and as it's almost 1:30 a.m. I also should be sleeping), the title is going to be, "What I should be doing instead."

Dearest ineedcrayons, while those all sound like good and great things to do, I'm quite sure that writing a complimentary post to me was EXACTLY what you should have been doing at that time.  Well done!
