In which I am productive

grammargirlI've been wondering recently why it is that, even with a job I adore, I remain largely incapable of such seemingly simple adult tasks such as doing my laundry regularly and cleaning the bathroom every week. Then Spring Break started and everything started to make sense. In the last two nights, without the looming specter of class, I have accomplished the following:
*Cleaned the bathroom
*Did a sink full of dishes
*Did many, many weeks' worth of laundry (though in all fairness "doing laundry" in my case involves sorting the laundry, dragging it to the laundromat, and picking it up again all clean and folded a couple days later)
*Dropped off a bunch of dry cleaning
*Washed two sweaters and some hosiery by hand
*Vacuumed hall, living room, and my bedroom
*Did a full change of the cat's litter
*Straightened living room
*Made my bed
*Cleared horizontal surfaces in my room
*Moved tights, knee-highs, boot socks, and other bulky items from dresser drawer to plastic storage container on top of dresser, thereby alleviating the dire space shortage in said drawer, a task I've been meaning to accomplish for weeks that ultimately required nothing but a trip to the hardware store and approximately five minutes of my time
It's amazing what I can accomplish when all I have to worry about is my full-time job, as opposed to my full-time job + two classes + transportation time to and from Queens + studying time + time spent staring off into space and feeling guilty for not studying. I am so freaking excited about summer, I cannot even tell you.
