This morning I didn’t shower
Because I wanted to exercise
And it seemed pointless to shower
Before I exercised
But the day went on
And I didn’t exercise
Because the requisite motivation
Escaped me
And everytime I found motivation
Something else came up
Like meals
Meals got in the way
Because you can’t exercise
Immediately after eating
But you’ve got to eat right?
And other tasks needed doing
And you can’t neglect your life
While you’re waiting to find motivation
To do something you don’t want to do
But once you’ve started a task
You can’t just stop
Because you want or need to do something else
Otherwise nothing would get finished
So the day went on
And jobs got done
And food was eaten
And it wasn’t a bad day per se
But I didn’t exercise
And so I didn’t shower either
Which seems a gross oversight
With the benefit of hindsight

I don’t think you had told me once though. That’s probably the root of the problem. Although the root of 144 is 12. And also -12.

Bryntin, were those your tweed-clad knees rising from the bathwater? Sorry, couldn’t resist a bit of Goon non sequitur.
