I realized, in my I have all these ideas and I have to do every single thing that crosses my plate personality, that while things are getting done, I’m not working efficiently so things are taking three or four times longer than they should, and I’m not as creative as I could be. And when most of my jobs require some kind of degree of creativity, that’s not a good thing.

For the past month or so, I’ve actually found myself still working past midnight, falling asleep in the middle of writing an email. (er, I hope my client emails at least made sense when I sent them…).

And a lot of this, I believe, is happening because I’m burned out. I’ve been on the verge of ’so close to being caught up I can taste it’ for… well, going on two years. And with this constant pressure to being ahead of the game, I’m not taking the time for fun. And without fun, I’m stifling my creativity, and, really, you know what they say – All work and no play make Lara a raving beeyotch, I mean, a dull girl.

But, now that i’ve gone three years of working too many jobs, I actually don’t know what to do with myself. I could turn to TV, but I’d like to do something that doesn’t require me sitting on my ever-expanding tushie. (And, quite frankly, I’m a little annoyed with TV right now. Life on Mars, I’m looking at you. It was all a dream, my butt. What the heck kind of reveal is that? ).

I did go out and buy a Wii, and while I can spend hours bowling, it still is kind of a solitary action. Especially since the Guy won’t play with me anymore, cuz I always win. LOL.

But… I’m stumped. I’d like to do something involving other people who are real. (I love my online friends, but dude, I need human contact). Something that gets me moving and outside and just not distracted by my laptop reminding me of all the work I should be doing.

What do the kids do these days? What are you doing for fun? Got any ideas for a completely out of shape, really not looking to sweat too much, but still need to be doing stuff kinda gal?
