There Should Be More Hours in the Day

I have not had much time for anything lately. I have a stack of comics still unread from three weeks ago, a pile of laundry that I suspect is becoming sentient, and a bajillion other things that I need to attend to but haven't. Why? Because I am a lazy shit.

I recently took a second job in order to pay the bills. Since my ex left, it's been a bit of a struggle to pay everything on time. So far I have been able to do it but I am beginning to fall behind on other things such as my personal writing. I know exactly what my excuses are and why I make them; however, despite their validity, the fact remains that my main problem is that there just aren't enough hours in the day for me to get everything done that I would like to.

In all seriousness though, I am behind in a few of my projects whose deadlines are looming over me. I have been neglecting a myriad of things this past little while and I am going to change that. I have time to write; I really do, I just use that time to do other, less important things. There are so many writing opportunities out there that are passing me by because I have my head buried in my silly full-time job that I am unhappy with. Ugh. I don't want to go back into all that. Enough moaning about shit I can't change right now. Time to make my personal time count for something.

Tonight is all about catching up, or at least making a plan to do so. Or maybe just thinking about making a plan to do it. Then again, maybe I'll just do it tomorrow after a good night's sleep....
