I don't really have anything more interesting to say other than that I've been working all day, and even my projects haven't been terribly interesting.
Although Jay the Landlord did call about my missing deposit. He's going to cancel the first check, send the second - and I'm willing to give him the time to get that done, no biggie.
I also got rid of my side saddle, finally - I was almost at the point of being willing to toss it out, but Alex the Roommate found somebody who wanted it - so I basically gave it away for 20 bucks. I suppose I could have got more - at least three times that, but unfortunately 20 was what came to mind first, and it was sort of too late to go back and say, "No, I really meant 60!" Besides - I won't let myself be annoyed with my own greed - if I was ready to toss the saddle and get no money for it, I shouldn't complain about getting 20.
My instant messenger is sort of getting me into trouble - it's really tempting to chat while I'm trying to type. While it does provide some nice distraction...still.
Oh, who cares? I had a fun chat with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ladyfalcon, and very breifly with kattahj - I dont' hear from either unless we chat (I mean, LJ commentary is great, but it's hard for "conversations"). Well worth being distracted.
I'm gonna eat something.
(I would post a What If? question, but I still have work to do, so I don't want to take the time. No - I'll do it anyway:
If you had to name the thing that most limits your freedom, what would it be?
You know, my first response was money, or rather, the lack of it. The lack of money limits the important things one might want to do with one's life, from traveling, to living in one location as opposed to another, to who is a compatible mate, to spending one's time the way one wants to (if one has to work to survive, their time is not "free."), and so on.
But then I thought, going deeper, the thing that most limits my freedom might be my procrastination. I'm free to do lots of things I should do - let get that hotel job, or write, or eat better, but I do none of those things because my bad habit is to put them off, even when they're things I actually want to do!
Except the problem here is that procrastination is a choice. It's always a choice. Given that choice is the ability to select between a number of options, is it even possible for to be a limit?
Okay...I think I just did the equivalent of throwing out my back, except to my brain. Let's go with...the laws of the physical universe, and all the sub properties in chemistry, etc, are what limit me the most, because I can't break them. There, that'll do nicely.)
