What I Did Today

Okay, what have I gotten myself into with this daily blogging thing? I actually have some topics I’d like to talk about laying in the wings, but for right now, I’m just winging it. I’ve used wing an awful lot already. 

So it’s Monday, and I said I would be blogging every day, meaning Monday through Friday, but today I have no idea what to write about.

Maybe I will just talk about my day. To be quite honest, my day today was pretty uneventful. I don’t think I was very productive. No, I take that back. It’s not a question of me not thinking, I know – I know I wasn’t very productive. 

I got up this morning without an alarm clock around 8:40am, took a bath, read a little in the bath, went from one oversized dress I would only wear around the house, to another loose-fitting cotton shift I would never be seen in outside the house. My hair kinda looks like Michael Jackson’s from “The Wiz.” And how apropos because it’s pretty scary (I also remember him using the word apropos in that movie, just thought I’d mention that). 

I’ve been doing a lot of planning in my head without writing anything down. 

I should probably do my laundry tomorrow, though I think I can go one more day.

I looked at a lot of condos online today, as if I had money to buy one.

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this in this blog before, and I’m not in the mood to look it up, so if you’ve read this before, here it is again. Anyway, speaking of condos and having a place of my own (I live in an apartment with my mom and sister), I remember when I first started watching “Sex and the City”, back when we lived in a house when I was around 20.  I remember seeing that room with a closet and a bathroom that she called an apartment, and thinking I couldn’t imagine living in something like that in my 20s let alone 30s like she was. What in the hell are they calling apartments in New York?

Fast forward 20 years later, and now at 40, what I wouldn’t give to be able to afford a tiny ass apartment like that.  As a matter of fact, I’ve been kinda obsessed with tiny apartments as of late, watching mostly New York City studio apartment tours on YouTube, and a few in LA. But studio apartments aren’t really a West Coast thing, we have the space here. There’s not much need to stick you in a walk-in closet and call it an apartment.

So anyway, that’s what I did today. I also watched my must-see daily shows, which included The View, The Real, and the game show 25 Words or Less which I’ve gotten into ever since they took Steve Harvey off the air. It’s just a really cute game show that’s so fun for me to watch. I wonder how I would do if I went on.

I got my stimulus check, well actually direct deposit last Wednesday, and I’m trying to be good about spending it.  I’m trying not to spend it frivolously is what I’m saying. It was weird seeing the money in my account. On the one hand I was happy about it because I really needed the money. On the other, I was upset that I made little enough to qualify for it. Like I’d much rather not qualify for it, but I won’t complain.

Well, that’s enough for today…oh, and one more thing.

Just kidding, that’s all for today.

Lord, let me be that river.
