April Showers Bring Mayflowers, But What Do Mayflowers Bring?

I suppose the evolution of my days began when the weather turned. Speaking to my flowers in the afternoon while the sun beats down makes me feel more productive. Bruce is quick to point out that productivity is in the eyes of the beholder, or in this case, the only one making any money.

But take today, for instance, I wandered into the bathroom around the time Bruce left, wandered out to the patio to say good morning to the plants, went to pay a bill, got my nails did, talked to Bruce, ate lunch, wandered home, talked to Bruce, spoke to a head hunter, applied to a few or seven jobs (but who’s counting), talked to Bruce, read the Internet, made plans to see my cousin’s girlfriend next week, watched Animal Precinct (one of my favorite shows ever) and now I will nap.

Sure, most people would be able to add a “productive” activity to that list but these activities have taxed me significantly. More importantly, whether it’s just in my own mind or not, I feel productive. I swear, it’s all about talking to the flowers.
