Grindstone?
I'm wondering about the sanity of listening to the this song from the Basketball Diaries Soundtrack at my ripe old age. I don't think I will grow up thank you very much. I am semi-permanently trapped somewhere between corporate drudge and disaffected youth.
The former because in lieu of enjoying my spring I've decided to work an ungodly extra number of hours on my off days. There is some method to my madness. Got to support my Japanese habit. School's really reasonable--works out to less than $20 and hour. Still I have to put some controls in place if I want to maintain my dedication, one of which is limiting my extracurricular activities. Trust me. It's very easy for me to let them win, and they have of late. Besides that I'm going to India and who knows whatall else. I'll still have one day off a week to check out the cherry blossoms.
Speaking of school, we have a lot of tests it seems and it's easy to fall behind. Still I managed this morning's test at last. Shoulda/coulda/woulda taken it sooner but I had to catch up on my kanji. Well I did, but it's still nose to the grindstone time.
What am I talking about? I'm going skiing in two weeks. Honestly, I can't keep up with myself. Anyway, it's nice enough now to think about running in the morning. What the heck. Maybe I will...think...about...it...
