I had a practice this morning, so I got up, got dressed, and went and skated. I have another practice tonight, so I knew, all day, that at 6:30 I'd have to be ready to leave again.
For some reason that made my brain click into this mode that I had to wait that whole time. From noon until 6, I couldn't settle down and perform any tasks. I couldn't even take a nap. I just wasted six hours. I didn't even cook-- dinner tonight was leftovers.
It was very frustrating.
This is why, working afternoons, I never got as much done as you'd think I would. I would spend the whole morning uneasy, unable to focus on any task, because I was going to have to get ready and go soon.
I hate being like that. I don't know why time seems worthless to me if it has a hard boundary. But I just can't relax and get into anything if I know I'm going to have to do another thing soon. You'd think this would be kind of a basic ability, but I don't have it.
I couldn't even get my heart into messing around on the Internet. Anyway, I'm dressed and ready now, and I just feel like I've wasted a day. Pthbbbtt.
And my knees hurt. Boo.

Date: 2008-10-12 10:24 pm (UTC)Guh. Six hours. I have so much to do. I could've done any number of things. I started to, but couldn't focus long enough! I couldn't even focus enough to weed the garden!
Of course, the hurting knees didn't help with that at all. I am so mad about them.
I tried to do a sewing project but couldn't focus long enough to even find the materials.
