Still Not Perfect

The weeks seem to go by so fast, but not as fast as the weekends. I’m finding myself falling into the “living for the weekend” rut. I just look forward to having my own time. The weeks go so fast because work dictates so much of my time, socializing (which is a big drain sometimes) fills up a lot of evenings that I’m not on-call, and what little is left after that is for everyday chores (needless to say they don’t often get done when they should).

Then when the weekends do come around (which lately seems surprisingly fast) they get filled up too. I try to avoid the social stuff on the weekend, much to my wife’s chagrin, and instead work on my own projects at home, read, or otherwise relax. I just wish there was a way to slow time down so I could fit all the things I wanted to do in the weekend. Of course if I could slow time down I wouldn’t even need a weekend because I could get work, socializing, leisure, and rest all in everyday.

How do people even busier than me (of which there are many) not go crazy?
