Snow peas remind me of...

... all the time that I'm wasting ripping the ends off said snow peas, peeling off their little tendrils, and then chewing on the body of the vegetable. Minutes, even HOURS every week spent on preparing and eating a vegetable. Imagine that!

The topic du jour is Time, and the severe lack of, and elusiveness of Time.

I'll elaborate: It appears that I spend several minutes during the day doing menial tasks. These empty time units are often made up of staring at my computer, texting friends in England who are asleep, and eating vegetables. It also appears that I spend several hours during the day catching up on admin tasks that I have accumulated during my busy week of selling and meeting people. Of all my time units during the week, I think that I spend roughly 2 whole day units, (units of 24), doing things that I enjoy whole-heartedly, e.g. reading, writing and sleeping.

It's time for a change - it's time to prioritise.

Q: What is the most cost efficient way to spend my time units?
A: At work.
Q: What is the most enjoyable way to spend my time units?
A: Asleep.
Q: What, in reality, is the most likely way to spend my time units?
A: Awake, at work, doing my job.
Q: Is there any way out of this?
A: No.

In short, This rather cyclical post has indeed brought me back to the beginning, with a sharp realisation that there's no getting out of my time-poor debacle. I'm doomed, doomed I tell you, to a life of inadequately spent time units and lack of sleep.

God damn...
