Habit-forming.

You know, there are a many other things I should be doing right now. A partial list would blow your mind, let alone the full list. But I'm hungry (goodbye already, mushroom soup!), a little dizzy (oh, caffeine), and feeling romantic (I just watched Mrs. Brown). My to-do list is therefore suffering. These are the things I will get done before bedtime:

• Cleaning the kitchen.
• Laundry: Underwear.
• Vacuuming the living room.

I think that is a reasonable distillation of things that can no longer wait in my household. I bid you adieu.
