Because I Want To

I can't remember the last time I did this. I'm sitting on the couch right now looking at my computer screen with the sole and simple pleasurable intention of doing EXACTLY what I want to do. With laundry needing to be done, floors to be swept, rooms to be cleaned and databases to manage, I am making the choice to say "yes" to what I want to do and "no" to what I need to do.

I don't realize how rare these chances come to me until they actually come to me. With the kids occupied and Paul reffing basketball for most of the day, I have a few hours of free time with no real schedule or duty to be a part of. For the next few hours, I plan to clean up my photo library, edit some photos and do what I love to do most in the world: photos, reading and music. Ahhhhhh. The sound of it is a touch above delightful, the thought of it is practically unimaginable. I may even turn the phone to silent and crack open a bottle of ice cold Coca-Cola and indulge myself a little at the opportunity.

Sorry, Responsibility. You're gonna have to sit this one out...
