Oddly enough, Blogger seems to be having some issues. It had issues the other day, too, but still managed to choke out my post. Not sure if it's going to work today or not.
I am pretty organized, although I do have time management issues. It bothers me when I feel my life spiraling slowing out of control and no time to do anything substantially fun. This quarter has been especially brutal as Monday through Wednesday, I don't get to see much of Rob as I'm evening classes. Next quarter's not looking so promising either, as there's a business contract law class I want to take and it's on Mondays and Wednesday nights.
When we do have some time we like to quietly watch our Tivo. The eclectic mix of shows we get is kind of amusing. On the one hand, Tivo notes that we like Food Network, so quite a few of its recommendations are cooking shows. Last week, I noted that we hadn't seen any of our favorite Tuesday night offerings, so Rob sat down and located them using the Tivo search feature. We sat down to watch the tail end of the first one, with me grabbing the control frantically to give it the requisite three thumbs up so it'll be recorded by the Tivo as it comes up.
On Tuesdays after my meeting, Rob and I like to snuggle together on the couch for a little bit of murder and mayhem. We watch The New Detectives and The FBI Files on Discovery. Rob chuckles about our gruesome little habit, but it's fascinatingly scientific. Plus we get to argue about whodunit: Rob sticks up for the husband/boyfriend who's always to blame when the wife/girlfriend disappears; I cheer on the detectives for locating those loser wife beaters. When my meeting runs too long, Rob will whine from the couch, "They're framing another innocent man and you're not here to watch!" which is my clue to try and bring the in-game event to a close.
Which makes me feel rushed. I want to take time with the folks who want to ask me questions or bounce an idea off the group, but I also want to spend time with my husband learning new ways to use Krazy glue.
