    Default Stupid being responsible

    I am tired, I have to be up early, so I will be going to bed early to try to be well rested for tomorrow, unless I sleep poorly.

    But what I want to do is stay up late and play video games and eat jalapeno poppers

    What are some sacrifices you make in order to be responsible? Or do you say eff that and do what you want anyways and leave your future self to deal with it?

    Like you, I always want to go to be early. I'd love to have 7-8 hrs. of sleep as opposed to 5, but I always stay up for the Colbert Report.

    I guess that's opposite of what you're looking for.

    I stayed up and drank too much forgetting I had a presentation the next morning. My hangover was terribly evident to everyone in the room.

    Found out that someone made a translated rom of Super Ultra Baseball 2, which is a sequel to (as it is known in the US) Super Baseball Simulator 1.000. Basically, it's a baseball game where you can have powers at bat or while pitching. Just a fun, silly game. I loved SBS1.000 when I was a kid, and I been playing it recently.

    So I found out about the sequel that never came to the US (they were working on a US version, but it got cancelled) while reading up on the series at work on break. I was half tempted to take the night off just to play it because screen shots/reading about it made it look like an improved version of the SBS1.000!

    But then I remember that's a stupid reason to blow off work, and I got a lot of stuff done that I needed to do here!

    I was enjoying the Germany v Algeria match but it was getting late. The day before I'd stayed up even later to watch the dour Greece v Costa Rica game and when Germany went one up, I decided to go to bed and miss the last fifteen minutes. After watching 105 minutes for just one goal, they of course went and sodding scored another goal each while I was asleep

    Seriously football is messing with me and my sleeping. Both last night and the night before I was tired and wanted to go to bed but Matt was all "No I need to get the rest of the football game into my brain!"

    Yeah I almost always go to bed on time. This means missing out on essentially anything that happens after 7pm. I did make an exception for the Super Bowl earlier this year, because I was enjoying seeing the Broncos get crushed

    Can I just say that it's surreal to me that you are talking about football? You don't seem like the type to get into it. It's cool, though!

    Also that game was hilarious.

    I generally leave things to my future self to deal with (to a point - obviously I don't neglect all of my responsibilities forever, or else I'd be dead). I have a habit of saying "Work is already going to ruin my tomorrow - I'm not going to let it ruin my tonight as well!' I'm terrible at being an adult.

    My future is fuelled by the fires of words, wit and companionship.

    I usually figure, I am only working in order to earn money to live life and party...so I might as well live life and party! I don't enjoy myself at work whether I am hungover or not anyway, work is bad so it makes no difference really.

    That game was a trainwreck. You knew once that ball floated over Goober Manning's head the jig was up. He mentally couldn't recover from it. If you could combine his skills w/ his brother's intestinal fortitude, you'd have the greatest QB in NFL history.

    Look, what has Future Me ever done for Me? All he does is sit there and nag about tomorrow's responsibilities. Well if he wants something from me I'll need something in return and until he provides that, he can spin on it
