We conducted an informal poll amongst ourselves, my pets & I, to determine things we do that are a waste of time. These are they, in no particular order, because it was hard enough agreeing on the whole thing with them, I didn't dare try to rank them.
The first two: Interacting with the cats (say the dogs)/Tolerating the dogs (say the cats).
They're mortal enemies & pretending anything different is, according to them, a waste of time.
Next: trying to get one's life organized.
What a waste of time! Just put post-it notes everywhere & hope they don't fly away. Spending hours each week to organize an online calendar is a waste of time. The pets ask me what time is, anyway.
Next: doing anything other than eating meals.
It was unanimous that the time spent between eating, sometimes including sleep, is a waste of time. I am aware that if I ate all the time, it would lead me to be even more unhealthy than I already am, so I do my best not to eat all the time, but this logic is lost on the animals. Who tell me at the moment they are fucking hungry.
Plus: making radio shows.
Yes, I have fun doing this, but virtually no one listens to the radio shows I make, & almost certainly they find when they listen it's a waste of time, so naturally I am wasting an extraordinary amount of time putting these fuckers together.
Penultimately: writing in this blog.
If no one listens to my shows, a negative amount of people don't read this blog. It's true! No one has read my last two entries. Perhaps no one will read this one. It certainly feels like a waste of time.
Finally: everything but eating & sleeping.
The animals talked it over, & they've decided that everything but eating & sleeping is a waste of time. So I need to feed them now because they need their twelve hours' beauty sleep.
