My clothes, both clean and dirty, are all over my floor. I’ve gone to a “stylish” half-shaven look because it is more convenient. My bathroom isn’t quite dirty, but it ain’t clean either.
After I open a beer bottle I leave the cap on the floor because I can’t be bothered to put it in the trash. The floor is running out of space. I no longer iron my shirts….not that I did a good job even when I tried.
I used to eat a nice calm dinner every night….a bowl of soup and a salad and a book. I’d sit for a good 45 minutes and relax after work. Now I eat fast food….literally because it is faster.
I keep telling myself I’m gonna get my air conditioner fixed. The compressor isn’t broken; it’d be cheap to fix. I just can’t seem to get over there to drop the car off.
I have many great theories that I’ve been cultivating for years about what this state of affairs will eventually do to a person. And I’ve started writing a few entries on all that….I just can’t seem to get them finished.
I even happened to spend a day with an endocrinologist last week and talked to her about that the constant high octane lifestyles we now live.
It will literally kill you. Luckily, all our friends are doing it too, so we don’t much notice how irritable it makes us, nor will we notice how much it shortens our lives….since all our friends will be dying early too.
Oddly enough, it is completely sustainable…made moreso the busier you become. The more stuff you have to do, the less time you have to reflect on whether it is what you really want to do.
I’ve gotta find more hours in the day. Anyone know where to look?

Try Venus. The days there have 5832 hours. Of course it gets like 900 degrees, so you might want to bring some SPF 50 and maybe a pair of sunglasses.
Interesting idea. Venus. It would’ve never occurred to me. I wonder why??
I like the idea though…even enough to do a little digging.
It seems the days on Venus are 243 Earth days. That equals the 5832 hours you suggested. I guess I wasn’t the only one to do a little research.
So far your suggestion seems like a great idea. 5832 hours in a day is like plenty!!! Not even I could find a way to complain about that.
However, nothing is ever that easy. Not even moving to Venus.
It appears that a day on Venus is longer than a year on Venus!!! (a year is 224.7 Earth days)
I’m unsure how this would affect my decision.
It seems confusing. I might die before my next birthday, which is about 40 or so days from now. Or maybe I would have a birthday everyday and live to be thousand. That seems lonely. Would there even be a September on Venus?
I realize it gets really hot on Venus too….900 degrees seems a bit extreme, but maybe it’s a dry heat??
I am not so sure about this move to Venus. But I am sure of one thing: I definitely don’t want to move to Uranus.
I don’t know how long the days are in Uranus….but I’m sure every minute you’re there is one minute too long.
EMA…or perhaps in this case MTMA.
Isn’t Uranus a gaseous planet? Like Saturn, only its Uranus?
Kiddie humor never gets old. Heheh
