TCB (That means Taking Care of Business)


For the last two months I was able to keep my laptop on my work desk. Doing this allowed me to watch movies on Netflix while I spent countless hours scanning documents. Now that era of white noise movie watching is over. Scanning all days makes me fall asleep. I don’t care who you are but you’d probably fall asleep too, if all your workload required was pushing sheets of paper through a tiny fujitsu machine.

In the past I would just listen to music, but my ears would get tired of the Pandora tunes. Listening to my iPod also gets old. I get tired of trying to figure out what artist I want to shuffle to next. Since my boss cut me off from my laptop I’ve been using my iPod to sneak in my movie watching. It’s kind of ingenious when you think about. I lay the iPod in front of my keyboard, that way I have complete control and large body covers the small device. Now don’t jump to any conclusions about me. It’s not like I just seat at my office desk and stare at my iPod screen like some sort of couch-potato. I really do my allotted work load. I just need something to help the time pass. It keeps me focused. I’m the same way when it comes to homework. I don’t know what it is about silence but it causes me to procrastinate.

Things pertaining to taking care of business is my desire to beat my video games. I usually don’t go crazy on purchasing video games but the Game Crazy near my apartment was closing so all their games were super cheap. I ended up buying 6 new videos games for the price of what it usually cost to purchase a new PS3 game. Now I face the dilemma of finishing the games I’ve already started or beginning the new games. I only seem to get maybe four hours of game play in per week so this is a big decision for me.
