Yesterday I admitted to having the dumbest addiction ever and issued a challenge to myself to go one week without playing an online flash game. Today I called into work because I’m sick.
Shit.
I’ve got nothing but time and a laptop today. I’m not about to spring up and do a bunch of housework or run errands. The wife’s got a bunch of work to do with the website and writing and the boy’s got school so I can’t bother them with my ramblings. What the hell am I supposed to do with myself today that doesn’t involve online games?
Stare at pictures of sloths for a while
Sloths are awesome. That’s just a fact. Every few weeks I’ll just google image search “sloths” and think about how cool it’d be just to hang out with a sloth. Everybody wants to meet a sloth. Anybody who doesn’t probably doesn’t have a soul. Just look at what meeting a sloth did to Veronica Mars –

I don’t really feel like getting up and going out but this is an errand that needs to be done and doesn’t require anything of me other than to drive to Jiffy Lube and hang out in the little waiting room. While I’m there I can start an impromptu 12 step meeting with whoever’s in the waiting room with me. We’ve already got the shitty coffee, folding chairs and depressing atmosphere. I’m sure whoever else will be there probably has some shit they want to get off their chest, too. Once they hear about how lame my addiction is they’ll probably have no problem admitting they huff paint or strangle hookers or whatever.
Or I could just nap. I think I might nap.
