I Just Can’t Pay Attention

Posted on | October 15, 2004 | 6 Comments

While the bosses are away, the mice will slack off.

So, I sit here, on the longest day of my life. I don’t know why time has decided to stop its normal progression, but hell, I am about to stand up and make a run for the door. At the rate that time seems to be moving, I may make it to my car right as I am scheduled to leave.

My quote of the day “I’ll take the beagles outside and use the machete”…
No, I was not threatening to kill my boys. I was trying (key word trying) to tell D that I would keep them busy outside while I killed the bouganvilla (which I still haven’t done, and I still can’t spell) so he could take a nap in peace. But it came out all wrong, and he got really quiet. I find that I don’t finish full thoughts when I am with him. I just assume that he understands my incohesive gibberish. But we both thought the prospect of my going out back with the beagles and the machete quite amusing.

Fuck. Is it 3 yet?

    This relates to the Plato’s Allegory of the Cave in The Republic…

    You are free. Remember what you told me once? A wise man once told me that you make a choice to go to work, to drive that drive, to stay there for 8 hours. If you want it to change you have to choose to make a new route to work…. and it doesn’t have to go to the same place….

    But I guess this means you don’t want to rescue me.

    Yeah, I equate leaving work to a jail break, that is kind of what I meant. In fact sometimes when I’m driving to work, I think how much I wish I was free….

    Isn’t there something wrong with a society where people equate leaving work to a jail break?
