Listing Lindsey

I'm kind of a nerd. Like, a big one. I've always loved school. Other than preschool-- apparently my preschool teacher had Alzheimer's, but that's another blog altogether. But starting with kindergarten and the fabulous Mrs. Johnson, I have loved school. Each summer, I restlessly waited for school to start back, anxiously looking forward to new reading assignments and such. At the time, I think it had to do with some insatiable desire to learn. I wish that were still the case.

But no, now school represents structure to me. I could give or take the actual learning part, but luckily I'm working on a Master's that requires classes I actually care about. So while other people have been anxiously awaiting their summer breaks, I've been looking forward to getting back to work. My life is in desperate need of a routine. After a fun-filled weekend with Boyfriend and besties, it's time to get my life back on track: eating better, regular gym time, homework, daily quiet time, etc. And hey, if the homework should take place poolside, so be it.

So last night after class-- a class that I'm already certain I'm going to love this summer-- Kat and I got reacquainted with the gym. After that, I dug in and finished some serious homework-- oh yes, after one night of class, I already have homework... and maybe a little left over from last semester, but give me a break, there was this little weather incident...-- and today I'm already feeling better about my productivity.

I don't know what it is about daytime, but it's my least productive time of the day. It probably has a lot to do with my having no reason to change out of my pajamas... but something about the natural light and shadows just makes me mopey and lazy. But when the sun goes down, my productivity goes into overdrive. So now... I'm just waiting out the sunlight with some Community re-runs... Yawn.
