3 days to make it happen, 10 days to make it happen

what?

3 days: this is how long my weekend is, starting today. this is coming after 7 days of straight working, though. man, I am worn out. but a 3 day weekend is undoubtably noticably more relaxing/productive than the 2 day weekend we're all used to. especially since I feel we lose a day (in a good way) on sundays, when we spend the entire day in gig harbor/fox island. so I typically only have 1 day to get caught up on house/yard work and to actually relax. it's not really sufficient. at all. so today Kelley and I went shopping for some clothes for her... not really so much "relaxing" (I'm actually pretty worn out), but it was good to get out and do something and to not feel like I'm working. tomorrow we'll do some house/yard work and hopefully some writing. maybe play some soccer in between. and then sunday we'll go out and do our sunday usual. all this to say, I wish every weekend was a 3 day weekend. 2 is not enough to make it happen.

10 days: I think this is how long I have left on my facebook fast, which will have lasted approx 40 days at that point. I think I started sometime towards the end of March. the first few weeks were surprisingly easy. this week I've been wanting to actually log in and see what's going on. it's sad. but at the same time, this is how I know what's going on in the lives of my friends... namely those who I don't see much. the disappointing thing is, the reason I did this fast was to focus my life more on my family and my music. I don't think this objective has totally been met. I could say I've spent more time with my family, but I think a lot of it has just gone towards housework... which benefits my family I guess, so that's....good. and the music hasn't been nearly as productive as I had hoped. in the next 10 days, I hope to make this fast more worthwhile.
