I'm doing 39 things
This is short and sweet. I am indecisive and it takes me a really long time to get anything done. I figured if I did at least one thing on my list it might inspire me to do more. Granted I choose buying something as my first thing, shopping maybe my most utilized talent. The way I wrapped my head around it was if doing one thing would make me happy and inspire me to possibly do more, then what would doing two things on my list make me feel. I decided to find a loop hole. By listing doing one thing, I would only be required to do one thing to get two done. It’s not a brilliant idea in the least but I feel like I truly am the master of doing the two birds with the one stone deal… I applauded how I am lazy enough to get two things done, but only using the energy of doing one. Plus it is a miracle I did one thing. Mostly I sleep on my couch and dream of days when I had vigor.

I am famous for not ever doing anything. I am pretty much the laziest person you’ll ever meet. For 2 years now I have said I want a pair of Quad skates. After making this list I decided the time has come. I researched online and discovered Skates are a lot of money. I looked on eBay but was unimpressed by the selection. So I did the next best thing. I went on to Amazon.com and found I could get a pair of Chicago Ladies skates for about $34.99. They may be crap, but since I have not skated in close to 20 years I figured why bother getting the good ones. 1) I could hate it. 2) If I damage them I won’t mind so much.
Then again they could be utterly horrible and break during the first use. Anyway here is to me following through.
I am sort of in smit with them. I am hoping to love them a bit more when I get them and try them out. I have to be honest; I did not want white ones. But I read once that Women’s sakes always come in white and Men’s come in black. Whatever happened to the puke brown ones you could rent at rinks. I would have loved those. I would have made up a story about them. Like Susie’s funky Roller disco went out of business and I bought them just before they demolished the place, or I stole them from Sam’s Rockin’ Roller Rink when I was 5, knowing one day my feet would fit into them and they would be my preverbal rolling glass slippers.
I guess I will have to come up with a whole new story about these pink wheeled beauties, or maybe just tell the truth.
