Unemployment

Why is it that the less I have on my plate to do, the less I get done? You'd think that all that free time would allow me to get all those little things done that I never had time to do before. But NOOOOO...instead I've managed to catch up on 8 seasons of Law and Order SVU!

You know it's time to find a productive occupation when you start referring to television characters as friends of yours in common conversation.
