I Think I Need A Vacation So I Can Work

Time for another edition of Patrick is too f’cking busy!

I have a lot of things I’ve been meaning to do, some of my current to-do list items are more important than others, yet the less important ones are often more enjoyable to do:

  • Pick my brackets for March Madness
  • Prepare for my two Fantasy Baseball drafts
  • Catch-up on my DC Metblogs posts
  • Catch-up on my New Persuasion posts
  • Wonder why I write for so many blogs (sorry Millennial Voices, this is why I don’t have any time for you!)
  • Apply to Grad School (this one is getting the shaft big time)
  • Network
  • Arrange Roommate Happy Hour (sorry Caroline I know you want to get drunk with me!)
  • Arrange Poker game with Ryan and Neal (sorry Neal I know you want my money!)
  • Read Patrick Mongeau’s screenplay
  • Finish reading The Back Stage Guide to Stage Management
  • Catch-up on issues of Men’s Health
  • Catch-up on issues of Men’s Journal
  • Wonder why I subscribe to Men’s Journal (it was only a dollar when you bought that book on Amazon!)
  • Edit The OBX Season 2 (I’ll have DVDs by OBX Season 3, I promise!)
  • Finish working on footage for ESPN Documentary
  • Catch up on 24 (I’m behind three weeks)
  • Catch up on How I Met Your Mother (I’m probably behind two weeks)
  • Catch up on The Celebrity Apprentice (I haven’t even started watching)
  • Catch up on The Unit (I’m so behind that will become summer fodder)
  • Catch up on The Office (I’m only a week behind I think)

With a list like that I feel like I need to take a week off just to get all those things done. Forget vacation travel. I just need vacation to sit in my room and get all this done.

I can name three things that actually get done in my life: showing up for work, stage managing Rabbit Hole, and going to the gym with Adam.

Sometimes I manage to write in this blog too.

How am I going to get all these things done?

    How I Met Your Mother is a fantastic show, isn’t it?

    I can beat you in terms of TV. I have dozens of hours to watch. And my TiVo been acting up a bit, so I am terrified it is going to break and I will lose all those shows! Dan and I also have to finalize our wedding album, continue working on the wedding album for his parents and start the wedding album for my parents. Dan has to write his wedding thank yous (I wrote mine 6 months ago!) and we still have to put things on the walls in the office and bedroom.

  • I want a vacation just so I can sleep, that’s it. And not feel guilty.

    I’m working on my bracket right now. Class A procrastinator. And I love How I Met Your Mother.

  • I am also behind on The Office, and I’m finally caught up on 24, for ONCE, but it’s taking me so long to write my post on the last two episodes that I don’t even know that I’ll have it done in time for next week! :P (It’s getting pretty intense!)
