It’s 10:30, and I Should Be in Bed

No, seriously. I really should be in bed. A few weeks ago, Lisa and I admitted to ourselves that we do not use our time wisely. To that end, we put together a general routine schedule. During the first week, I did pretty good – I think Lisa thought she did alright. During the second week, it bombed. So before last week, we readjusted the schedule, and we did alright. This week, we’re bombing pretty solid; however, we’re trying to resolve to make the rest of this week solid (and right now, I should be in bed … something isn’t right about this) So, anyways, for those that can keep tabs on me (as in you most likely can see me snooping on the web), here’s our schedule.

Remember, at 10:30, I should be in bed.
