My laziness is about to pay off, big TIME.
I'll admit my faults, and I have many. One of them is occasional laziness. I wouldn't say that I'm any lazier than the average person, but I do seem to choose pretty random areas in which I display that unfortunate characteristic. Now to be fair, I have some admirable qualities as well, some are quite the opposite of lazy. I spend at least two hours a day riding my stationary bike. I don't watch tv unless I'm pedaling. That's not lazy. I vacuum everyday...steam clean my carpet once a week. That's my OCD showing, but definitely not lazy behavior. I go to the grocery store every other day because I want my food to be fresh. That is hard for me, I loathe grocery shopping. So, that is a big display of effort in my book. But... Back in November we had to "fall back". Remember? We were all excited about getting an extra hour of sleep? I recall that Sunday. I reset my microwave clock. I reset my alarm clock. I reset the watch I wear 95% of the time. Good for me. I failed, however, to change 21 wall clocks in my apartment. Yes, you read that correctly...21. I like clocks, I think they are interesting, so I've chosen to make them part of my decor...art if you will. There is not one place in my space, where you are unable to see a clock. So, that's where this story takes a turn. I didn't reset one of those clocks in November. I considered doing it during Christmas break, but it didn't happen. The thought occurred to me sometime at the beginning of February, but I decided that in only about a month, I would just have to change them all back again. So what would be the point? Now, we have come to the weekend in which we must "spring forward". As I write this on my bike, I must admit I feel rather accomplished. I have all my clocks ready to go ahead of schedule. Maybe it isn't laziness after all. Maybe I'm just making good use of my time.
