units.

I like to break up my day into units.
And sometimes I like to think that I am very much like the guy in About a Boy because I get paid to do nothing and so I fritter about my day with the most menial of tasks. And I book bands that don't pay me. So, yes, I feel very much like About a Boy.(Exceptions: I am not an ass, I don't get my hair carefully dishevelled, my dad didn't make it big writing a Christmas jingle, and I really have no interest in dating single parents).

1. walk to starbucks. drink cappuccino. complete the daily crossword (yes I am awesome.) > 3 units
2. conference call with Drew and Jeremiah (booking purposes) > 2 units
3. putzing about myspace > 4 units
4. Booking emails/phone calls > 5 units
5. Teeth whitening (again) > 2 units
6. Post office/bank > 1 unit (I hate both of these errands very much)
7. re-ordering the netflix list > .5 units
8. trying on vintage dresses at Time after Time > 1 unit
9. Finish zip code madness > 1 unit
10. Talk to my actual boss, (you know, for my actual job) > .5 units

Do you remember when I said...

Do you clean your "units?" You know for hygenic purposes? You should. It doesn't take that many units to give all of them a good scrubbing.

mystifier: amazing. you did the units breakdown and I love you for it. no worries, my units show how much of a fat lush I am.

do you remember when I: that question is far too personal. I'm not telling about how clean my units are.
