Today was...again...the day when I was definitely going to get around to making huge progress on my taxes. So much so that I made plans to meet with my dad's girlfriend at her house to review progress and gather another box of files in my long overdue, long put off, monstrous task of getting caught up on 3 years of unfiled corporate and personal taxes.
Here's how it went.
7:30 - alarm goes off, not heard due to deep sleep
10:51 - wake up, swear at lateness and pain from time since last methadone dose (27 hours), which today I have to pick up from the drug store
10:55 - limp in freezing cold weather to bus stop, wait 10 minutes until bus arrives and...I realize I don't have my bus pass.
11:01 - limp back to bus stop in freezing weather, now armed with bus pass
11:34 - obtain weekly carrries of methadone from kind pharmacist, ingesting one bottle before leaving drug store
12:54 - methadone and - just brewed - coffee are starting to have desired effect - i.e. slight sense of motivation, ability to walk without limping
2:51 - having finished watching "Wanted" starring Angelina Jolie, call made to dad's girlfriend to cancel on "accounting date"
3:42 - wake up from short, unplanned nap to make plans with old friend to get together for drinks at 5:30
I don't think I need to go further. My supposed, long awaited day of immense productivity on the looming tax front has again evaporated, at least with the expectation of drinks and steaks coming within the the next couple hours. But at least tomorrow will be different, for sure.
