Getting backin the groove
I have become fascinated recently with how lazy I am.

Now, let me put this in perspective. I have a great work ethic, all of my past and present employers will attest to that. But when it comes to working for myself I am an idler supreme. My tiny little apartment is a mess. It gets cleaned up maybe once every two weeks, if that. My laundry sits in a pile. It takes me four months between haircuts.

Then there is my art. I consider myself a creator of art, a songwriter, and a musician, but damned if I stick with any one discipline for more than a week. I probably would have mastered Jazz comping if I did it every morning like I planned to instead of obsessing over it for three days and then disregarding it for an episode of Seinfeld. When will I finish my solo album (hell, when willI START it)? I have finished one comic strip in the past year and it is based on this stupid robot joke:

A robot walks into a bar. The bartender says,"Hey! We don't serve robots."
The robot replies, "You will."

Ok, I do think that is funny. I better post that one.

Anyway, I am decrying my laziness as a means of garnering sympathy, but I do find it humorous that I can appear to have accomplished so much but still be, in fact, a total slack-ass. Maybe it's just perspective.
