This is the summer doldrums, the time between Independence and Labor Day where nothing happens. But I could get things to happen, if only I am willing to get off my butt and do it.
For example, the biggest shindig in my club's year is three weeks from now. I should be doing more. But in terms of planning I ain't doin' shit. I think I should, but I don't know what that would be. Why? Because I haven't planned it at all. If I did plan it, I would know what I would need to do right now, you know?
I could also have planned another club event. But there's a lot of crap dealing with Tax IDs and shit, shit I wouldn't have the first clue as to where it would be. So I don't do it.
I could be sending out resumes, especially since I have told my temp agency I'm not going back to the flu biller place unless The Asshole has been fired. He obviously is there, so I have to look for something else, very soon. But have I been looking? Fuck no. It's summer, and therefore I get to be bored.
I could also be boning up for school. Hell, if I don't have work, might as go back to school. Maybe I could be looking up MOOCs online, or going to the library and finding crash-course books on calculus and economics. Have I done that? No. I've been surfing on the Internet on my phone, watching sports on TV, and masturbating to online porn.
There will be times, other than the hazy, lazy days of summer, where I will be overwhelmed or realize I have put myself in a bad situation. These are the times where I come face-to-face with the consequences of failing to plan. And I will think to myself, Why didn't I plan this before? I had time to, like the summer? You know, times like now.
But will I? Fuck no! I'm me!
