What would you rather be doing right now?

[jane_pippin]

I'm at work, but that's no way to spend a day.

If I could do anything right now instead of what I am doing, it would be to be in a clean, quiet, comfortable room with nothing on the walls, a record player, records, a desk, some books, my knitting project, some coffee & cigs, and a pad & pen. Then I'd just make things and read and nerd out all day long and I bet I'd get more accomplished that's worth getting accomplished than I do here at work. Why can't I get paid to do that? Doesn't seem so out of line to me. Oh well. Being independently wealthy must be something for the next life, I guess.

What about you? Are you content where you are today, or would you rather be doing something else?

1. On the couch with the gel hot pack on my shoulder, reading.

But nobody's going to do this work for me, so I suppose I ought to get back to it.

3. That sounds like a nice place to be.

Maybe you'll get done with your work earlier than you thought and you can have some couch time.

Good luck, good work, and I hope you get to feel a little better soon.

[Redstone]

4. Thanks, JP. Actually, I'm off for half an hour of just that.

I'll be able to work better after, yes?

16. Sure. Couch time heals all. (Or at least most).

Either way, it can't hurt.

2. almost anything would be better than this

I'm at work, too...and I agree, this is no way to live!

If I had my way, I would have slept in this morning and listened to the rain, then maybe gotten up about now for coffee...then some guitar strummin', and later, whiskey. Oh well, I expect I'll get to most of that later in the day anyway, after I escape from the cubicle maze once again....

6. On the couch

watching TV or finishing my book then I would run errands for the rest of the day. Ahhh, that would be nice

[jane_pippin]

13. Ugh. Cubicles. Proof of the dark lord satan.

I'm sorry you have to be in one today. Here's to that magical hour when you get to escape it.

5. Napping b/c it is a cold rainy day, perfect for curling up and

reading a book or napping!

7. I'm anxiously awaiting my City League basketball game tonight.

I had the stomach flu last week, and although we won, I was pissed that I didn't get to play. We've been playing really well as of late, and my shots have been falling, and we play the number one team in our league. They haven't lost a game yet. I wish that I was playing right now instead of sitting here doing relatively little.

8. At a concert (nt)

9. I'm kind of in a "why can't it be August?" mode right now...

Not so much because of the weather, but because by August, I will have moved, quit this job and started law school. I'm kind of in a holding pattern right now, and while it's not angst-filled, waiting-for-the-shoe-to-drop holding, it's annoying nonetheless. I'd rather be there right now.

[jane_pippin]

18. I know what you mean.

I'm trying to get some things together that, should they work out, would come to fruition around then too. Plodding through these next few months is already starting to wear thin.

Clearly, we need time machines.

[elehhhhna]

10. snorkelling at Rum Point on Grand Cayman. Then a BBQ

chicken sammich at the food shack, then more snorkelling.

[bicentennial_baby]

11. turning time back 1 month...

so i wouldn't have to leave my loves tommorrow to go back to my house and to skool for another semester... x(

[jane_pippin]

20. Aw, you need a time machine too.

Get on it already, Scientists!

Sorry you have to go back to getting your learn on. It'll be over before you know it though and you'll be able to regale your loves with your newest smarts in between tasty beverages next time you see them.

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

12. I am trapped at work...

would much rather be snuggled in bed watching TV all day. ahhh fantasies

[azmouse]

14. I'd like to be in Vegas today but ....

the laundry must be done and the bathroom must be cleaned and the yard must be raked.
But I'm not complaining. Life could be a lot worse.
And I'll be in Vegas next month... my mom retired there and I visit at least once a year.
Wasn't that nice of her to pick such a great spot to retire?! Yea, mom!!

[ghostsofgiants]

15. I'm pretty antsy to go vote right now...

But I have to wait for my roommate to get home from work.

[bicentennial_baby]

17. saw yr MySpace bulletin 'bout that

have fun voting!! :bounce:

:hi:

[ghostsofgiants]

19. Thanks.

I've been telling people to vote all weekend, haha. I bet a lot of people are sick of me by now.

21. If the title of this topic was

who would you rather be doing right now then I could give you an answer :)

[taterguy]

22. hiking

At this moment I'd like to be hiking on some spectacular trail where I've never been. Just me, my dogs, and a camera.

[schmuls]

23. shopping with at least $2,000 bucks in my pocket!

[LaraMN]

24. Sitting somewhere temperate, under a tree, near a street with heavy

foot traffic, chain smoking and people-watching. That sounds good to me.

Well, I can do the sitting part for real, anyway.
