Sundays are Productive Again!
By:
The Dude on the Right
It's amazing how much more productive I can be on a Sunday when there isn't a
football game to distract me. For whatever reason football is not a
multitasking sport for me. Golf, baseball, basketball, or NASCAR I can
have playing on the TV above my computer work area and keep up and never feel I
am missing anything, but not for football. Maybe it's the fact that any
given play can be exciting, or there's the action, then the stop in the action
to huddle, then the action again, then the stop again, and eventually a
commercial break to go pee. Baseball, basketball, and NASCAR just seem to
plow along during their duration, and sure, golf has the action/break sequence
of football but unless it's a hole-in-one, I'm not going to miss something
exciting.
But now that football season is done, today has been one of the most productive Sundays in a while. I read my newspaper with my breakfast, I did some grocery shopping where I bought only the foods I needed to get back on my healthy track this week, and I filled up the dude-mobile with go-go juice. I was going to get the dude-mobile washed, but with this being the first, sort of warmer day we've had in a while, the line for each car wash I saw was over ten cars deep, and I didn't want to spend the next hour waiting in line to get my car washed, especially when the forecast for tonight is snow, which means more road salt, which means that if I drive anywhere tomorrow, well, my car will look pretty much as it does right now, and I would have wasted an hour in line at the car wash. I didn't plan ahead, I guess, on the car wash thing, because the Turtle Wax does have free internet access and gives you a "Two Day Clean Car Guarantee," so I could have actually been productive, and got a free car wash on Tuesday, but alas, I'll have to try to remember to bring my laptop the next time.
But on my productive scale today, I also got a whole butt-load of movie previews posted, and started working on redesigning our home page a bit. The Grammy Awards are tonight, so I'll probably try catch them and hope something fun happens.
That’s it for this one! I’m The Dude on the Right!! L8R!!!
