Do you have a life?

Right now, I have no life. Finals were bumped up all of the sudden and I'm going into stress shutdown mode. I think my regularly scheduled life will resume sometime in June/July ;)
 
Well??????

I had a live once. A good life. A loving wife, kids, house in the burbs, a dog that could do tricks, a good job. Everything that makes life worthwhile.

Gone now, all gone. The wife, the kids, the dog the house, the job.

God, I'm so happy these days.

Yes I do have a life. It's quite ordinary, really.

I work 3 days a week, which is reduced somewhat from before. The extra time really helps me keep sane and relaxed. LOL Not like you could tell. I have an inordinant (sp?) amount of free time, but it never seems like enough. The husband type person keeps odd hours, so is underfoot often. I'm seriously considering taking some college classes, but I need to find out more. Maybe something online. Which is a big fat joke, really. I spend too much time online as it is, and end up paying a lot for it each month. I can't imagine spending more time online. I'd just end up browsing Lit, avoiding my class work. :rolleyes:

I think I'll stop here, because I think the rest is terribly boring. The part that isn't boring is very personal, and not really for public airing. *looking mysterious and failing* ;)
 
Nope, but I'm taking suggestions. I'd be happy to submit a list of personal strengths and weaknesses if someone wants to point me in some (used to read 'the right') direction.

Ishmael, I know exactly what you're talking about...except the kids thank goodness.
 
I posted a bit in riffs thread today,

hidden in a long quote was this about the evil of work which is often what stops people from having a life:


"..to create is to think, to think we need inactivity not action. If we are to free the creativity of the masses, we must free them from work, from useless and mind deadening toil, from control from outside, from regulation, from hate, from constraint. Only then are we likely to grow as individuals, only then can synergistic considerations resulting from free association transform our world."


Get a life. Just don't do it!
 
Nope, I'm too busy to have a life. I have kids, a husband that is a lot like having a 3rd kid... a farm... a house I'm remodeling... and, of course, Lit. Starting at the end of this month, I'll also have a competition schedule to keep, and I have a horse that's due to foal in July.

If we could add a couple hours to the day, I might be able to have a life.
 
Life is taken up by trying to keep suicidal sheep with post natal depression in contact with their newborn lambs. Followed by hauling large quantities of feed to cattle who would rather gallop around a field all day, than sedately fatten up.
Then trying to beat concrete hard clods into a seedbed fine enough to plant in. With minor distractions like needing two tractors to tow the seed drill out of one of the damper field corners. (Oh and one minor collision with a telegraph pole. Nothing a blow torch won't straighten.)

Aaaaah the joys of Spring
 
I have a wife and three great young kids. I work a ton of hours in a crummy retail job. My wife works part time opposite hours that I do , so I have time for Lit. I spend what little free time that I have reading books , mostly fantasy or science fiction ; and playing basketball outdoors.
 
I have a little itty bitty life I fit in between working a pretty regular schedule, visiting the nursing home, visiting the family, and feeding my addiction to Lit.

It mainly consists of going out with my boyfriend.

Vulva? A soft sculpture Vulva?? LMAO! Way too much time on her hands! :D
 
Life for me consists of: sleep, treatment, school, treatment, homework, treatment, this computer, some food, more sleep.

I'ts grrrrreat!
 
Life for me is pretty basic. I have the husband, son and the job. Working 5 days a week at my own business, trying to start another. On the side I have my net and chat addiction!
 
Do you have a life?
No, but this is my "reclaim my own life" year, and I'm going to make sure I don't live the next 20 years the same way I lived the past 20 years...my OWN way :)

Damn! My life resembles that comment! Except, Im pretty sure Im not happy.;)
 
Yes, somewhere out there. It just gets lost sometimes with all the different responsibilities that crop up out of no where. Between work, my dogs, and remodeling my house I have little time for myself. I find solace in my workouts at the gym, it's a great way to relieve stress.:)
 
I'll answer this one seriously, for a change.

I guess first and foremost is that I'm a student, and work as an intern at the state mental hospital...I see my family every week, whether we are speaking or not, and spend as much time as possible staring at my two nieces and one nephew. If being a mother is even closely related to being an aunt then I fear one day I will implode with love. Three of my closest friends just had babies, so the aunthood extends...one of them is in Colorado and that sucks. That makes for lots of visits in Chicago and lots of phone calls to Colorado. I recently starred in my friends B grade slasher flick which was hilarious, and my (covered breasts) were featured tastefully. I was killed by a tonguectomy. There have been a couple showings at a local bar; I'm sorry I didn't see more of you there. Too many of my friends are musicians so this means regular shows in addition to the other shows I like to see that require no obligation. Hey, I love my friends, but at least one of their bands sucks at the moment. I'm really into supporting my friends who do shit; make movies, make music...you know...make stuff. I have a bar with a stool that's always warm for me and my dog, though I just don't drink as much as I used to and definitely not as much as I'd like to. I spend time with the family of friends I've had since I was 15; we are contemporaries, not just old friends. Without them I would not live. My best friend lives in Portland and that sucks ass; I just got off the phone with him after yet again telling him that anytime now, an asteroid is going to land on Portland and Chicago is the safe zone. I travel whenever humanly possible and lately by car. After summer school, I'm going to try to repeat a trip I took last summer and drive mad all over the west...through the desert, southern to northern California...steal my friend in Portland...lots more but if I tell you, I'll make you put me up or at least pitch my tent in your yard. I've been chasing the northern lights since I learned what they were, but it seems I look at the night sky mostly in the summer and mostly in Chicago. Oh well. Then there's the dog. Sounds crazy, but he's the highlight of my life and I don't usually go anywhere without taking him along. I frequent parks in Chicago for long walks with my dog and friends. I go out for dinner whenever I can afford it and also spend some time fighting with my landlord. I masturbate frequently and write papers at the last minute. Let's see, what else can I tell the few crackheads that are still reading? I spend a lot of time dreading my research class and also wondering if I might like to go to medical school. My birthday is coming up and I've been networking since the beginning of the year. Always a big party. Always.

If you're wondering why it is I'm able to post so much at Lit; it's because all that time I should be studying, I'm usually posting. Still managed to pull a 4.0, so I must be doing something right.
 
Well, here's my life.

I work both a full-time and a part-time job, which equal about 56 hours a week. I'm a student working on a music degree which keeps me out of the house for three evenings and twice during the day (four classes total).

I sing and dance in a show chorus, with once a week rehearsals, and one rehearsal every month on Saturdays.

I have two lovely bebies who live a ways away from me. I get up there whenever I can string three or four days off in a row. I figure to get back up there in early to mid May (not only because of the time off, but also to save up money for the hotel room).

ON the side, I dabble in writing music, and doodling haiku.
