Too lazy for my own good

I hate it when I plan to do something and at the last minute decide that I am too tired or just don't feel like being bothered. I get so damn lazy sometimes, flaking out on doing things that I know damn well I will regret at some later date. Like not going to see Jill Scott for FREE in Brooklyn this past Monday because I did not feel like dealing with the crowds. I think that i am beginning to take this vacation thing a bit too far now. I think I got it twisted because this is the type of stuff you are supposed to do while on vacation..you know, like when you don't have to get up to go to work the next day.

This school year seemed like it took an inordinately long time to be over. In our district, some personel work 10 months and 22 days....your's truley is one of them. Seriously, I was clocking my time like a prisoner awaiting a release date- unabashedly. I told my secretary that I was not taking any work related calls AT ALL while on vacation, so don't bother me with the foolishness. They have had my mostly undivided attention for the past 10 months and 22 days and now, it's Miller time! (the joke here is that I don't even drink beer, but if I did, well you get my point). I remember one summer they were blowing up my cell phone, while I was on vacation, over some straight bull shit! Some stuff that anyone with half a brain could have handled. To say that I was an...
