I have a tendency to inconvenience
myself. Sometimes I don’t think far enough ahead and I do silly things like
leave my lunch in the fridge at my apt. Then I spend my lunch hour thinking to
myself well that was dumb, I could be
eating right now if I’d brought that food I purposely prepared for myself with
me. Unfortunately often I inconvenience myself because I am capricious. (If
you don’t know what that means I'm helping you expand your vocabulary -look it up.) Sometimes I decide to go on
spur-of-the-moment adventures. . . Adventures are fine. My problem is that I
allow myself to be distracted even when I know I don’t have time. Example:
I recently got asked on a date—it
happens sometimes. I said I’d go. He said he’d pick me up after work . . . and the
day rolled around.
That day I drove back from work,
found I had a lot of extra energy, and decided I wanted to go running. Most
people would have looked at the clock, thought to themselves oh I only have an hour before the date. I
should NOT go running right now. My brain doesn’t work that way.
