I have V for Vendetta playing on the left side of my screen and Firefox open on the right. I'm supposed to be working. And doing work for school. And keeping up with my Facebook pages (my person page, my business page, and another page that I help moderate.) But V for Vendetta is on. Sure, I can always pause it and watch later, but I got the urge to watch it when I saw it on the guide on TV and when I clicked to that channel it was in Spanish. Like... seriously? How could you tease me like that, Xfinity?!
I love this movie. I've loved it forever. I know, it hasn't been around "forever" but I've loved it for forever. If you don't like this movie, I don't like you.
I really should be working. I swear I'm going to get some work done today. But being a business owner, I really don't get days off. I mean, technically I could give myself days off whenever I wanted but that won't help my business grow. I might take my birthday off (March 1st) but probably not. Maybe that night, because I might have a few drinks, and drunk working never goes well.
(God I love this movie! V just made his first speech. LOVE IT! Especially the giggle. and "Are you like a crazy person?")
My To Do list is long enough to take up about 3/4 of my dry erase board. I love my dry erase board. It's not huge, but 1/4 of it is for push pins, and the rest is the dry erase board. It's black and white and cool looking. And I can write on it. So when I'm standing there thinking "oh crap what do I do next?" I can write "somebody help me!" or "figure out wtf I'm doing" or "OMG HELP ME!" Yes. All those things are actually written on my board. I find that when I'm stuck, either in writing, listing, work, or my personal life, the best way to get unstuck is to keep moving, even if that means writing nonsense like "figure out wtf I'm doing" on my To Do list.
I've discovered that running my own business is a lot more work than I originally expected. I really should have expected more. When I first started I thought "Hell yeah! I'm going to run my own business and I can be as successful as I want, and I can build my team and recruit people and BAM! I'll be successful!" And then I got my first recruit. "I'll be like her all knowing mentor!"
Now I'm thinking "Oh shit, I'm supposed to be running my own business. And my poor recruit... I have a LOT to learn!" Thankfully I do pretty well under pressure so having a downline (people that are "under" me in a way) is helping me better myself, especially as a leader.
This is me avoiding work. I admit it. I have no motivation at the moment. It has already taken me over 15 minutes to write this because I keep watching this movie instead. It's Saturday. I can be semi-lazy.
I also want to do some work to my truck. I need to take the door panel off and fix a seal on my window. I also need to replace the dipstick thingy and add oil to my truck. I'm sure she'll run and drive a lot better with the right amount of oil. This poor truck has been through so much abuse this winter. Poor old girl. It's just been too cold to work on it. The last time I worked on my truck was because my lights went out. I spent 2 hours outside in the 3 degree weather tracing wires, checking bulbs, changing fuses, and eventually replacing the headlight switch inside the dash. That was miserable. The only reason it took me 2 hours was because my fingers were frozen and even time I started dropping screws I would have to go inside to warm up. It's warm today but there is a pump in the middle of my driveway to clear the water so we can break up the ice and I can't get my truck in the driveway, and someone is blocking the garage so I can't get my truck in there either. I don't really like her, so I won't ask her to move her car. I usually avoid her.
"And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country." Seriously, I love this movie.
Ok, for real. I need to work. But... awe darn. All my stuff is in my truck, parked on the road. So I can't get too much work done. I should just sit here and type whatever comes to mine while watching this movie. You should watch this movie while you read this. Just because it's an amazing movie. Do it. Come on. Do it. I dare you. DO IT.
Are you doing it?
I should also clean the bathroom and vacuum the bedroom. Eh. Maybe later. V for Vendetta is more important.
Thanks for making it through this bunch of babble. :-P
