I have a job to do

Today, I have a number of things that I need to get done.  I will list them in order of priority, and then in parentheses, explain why this task is important.

1. Get a new bike tire and tube (I feel incapacitated without my bike)

2. Go deposit money in the bank (I have $3.14 in my bank account and sometimes money gets taken out without me realizing, because I'm only a partially responsible person)

3. Install new bike tire and tube (reason listed above)

4. Visit the Office of the Public Defender (I have a court date on October 27 and I'm not a lawyer, nor do I have a lawyer, nor do I have money for a lawyer)

5. Go in to the restaurant where I work and create an inventory list of all the glasses and silverware in the restaurant and include the holding capacity for said items in each hutch/cabinet in the restaurant (I have no idea why I have to do this, but I do)

6. Try very hard to call off of work tonight (because this list isn't over yet and I've only got 3 hours to do all of this if I have to go to work)

7. Calculate my carbon footprint (for my Climate Change and Sustainability class)

8. Buy concrete from Home Depot (for a sculpture that I'm attempting to create)

9. Finish drawings for architecture class (I don't know why this is so far down on the list, I guess because I can go to the studio any time of the day or night)

10. Call Citibank and other loan-givers and tell them why I can't make payments (because I am still in school, something about deferment, thinking about it makes my face hurt)

11. Paint?  (fuck, I could just wipe everything off the list and only do this)

12. Read (this has become an escape from all the other shit I have to do, so it has to be last)

Finally, here is how I feel right now: 

This is a glacier.  I feel like a glacier.  To counteract this feeling, I will now run with great speed to each of my tasks.  If I happen to cross paths with a glacier, I will steal someone's car and drive it with great inefficiency and laugh as the glacier melts before my eyes.  It will make me feel pained to do this in a way, because I feel like a glacier, sort of, so I can empathize with the glacier.  Maybe we can become friends one day.  I love the glacier.
