More on Avatar because I'm too lazy to change the header

Monday morning!  Aaerg! 

The alarm goes off at 4:30 because Karen said she wanted to swim laps before work.  There was one a time when I would run before work.  But, now, without a tall blue body.  Alas.  The precious hours before the rest of the world wakes up!

However, today Karen mumbles something about setting the clock back to six.  I fumble with the clock radio in the dark and then force myself to stumble out of bed anyway.

I may not run much anymore - but I can run off at the mouth.

Monday mornings are a bit tougher.  I stare at the screen and don't know what do to.  Actually, I don't know "which" to do because there are several things:
  1. Work on collecting Sally pictures for Brian
  2. Write more on Avatar agreeing somewhat with Tabor and Barry.
  3. Answer some email
  4. Read blogs
  5. Surf the net in general
  6. Print and frame a picture or two
My biggest time waster has always been trying to figure out what to do next. 

BUTLER:  "Lists are good."

BAGMAN:  "Push the publish button and go to Sally pictures for Brian."

BUTLER:  "But it would be polite if he read some blogs.  His friends will miss his comments.  What was you logic for doing Sally pictures instead?
BAGMAN:  "No logic!!!  Just do something!!  Anything!  As they sad in Avatar, 'If you're going to shoot, shoot.  But don't talk'."

BUTLER:  "That wasn't Avatar, you cinematographic dust bunny!  That was from 'The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly."

Realizing that I am not the only one who can jog off at the mouth, I turn out the light on the debating duo and go to do...well something.

Where am I?

Woke up this morning feeling like I’ve been lost in the woods for three days and almost fearing the shock of seeing how many blogs I’ve missed reading. This may a new record for the number of hours I’ve survived without turning on the computer. And I give the credit for this achievement to Karen who outdid herself this weekend, managing to spring a ToDo list on me Saturday morning that filled every waking moment through to bedtime on Sunday night.

Today I am taking an annual leave day from work to see if I can relocate my brain. Assuming that I find it again, I may write a real blog later. Meantime, I'll spend a little time exploring blogs I've missed.
