Pre-vacation Chaos Buildup!

Yay! My first real vacation ever next week! Cruise to Baja, here I come! That is if Murphy's Law doesn't tackle the shit out of me in the next few days. Murphy, you son of a bitch, I see you and your stupid law coming! You ain't gonna get me!!!!!! So in regular fashion, I am falling apart as usual and it is all my procrastinating ass's fault.
Aldous Huxley said “There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self.” Well Mr. Huxley, that is also the same corner we can all be certain of utterly fucking up. 
Case and point: I will do the dishes tomorrow, I will do that report later, I will exercise tomorrow, I will start my diet again tomorrow... And when later comes what do you have? Nasty moldy dishes, a pissed off boss, a jiggly ass, and the Michelin Man staring back at you in disgust when you look in the mirror. 
Why do we do this to ourselves? I certainly cannot answer why I have procrastinated the hell out of everything right before a badly needed vacation. If I have accomplished one thing, it is definitely to increase the stress out of all the loose ends I am leaving behind and proportionately decrease the amount of pleasure I will experience. So should I just fast forward to the end and shoot my foot now? NO! The key here is realizing, that while dear Mr. Huxley is right, we also have the option of brushing it all off and just keep on truckin'. Well not everything everything, but the things that we know that we will regret worrying about later. 

Remember, we are all trying to find a happy middle (except for all those damn over-achievers who have to excel at every damn little thing...Yes! I mean you little sis! I love you but I hate your skinny rich guts!). I am not going to stress about how clean my house is, my hubby is going to do the dishes, my boss can get pissed at me for whatever tasks I don't complete and can tell me about it when i come back, I will make a little effort to get off my ass and eat right these days before my vacay (but not that much), but come that day... exercise? diet? Y eso que chingao es?!? Super Buffet, here I come! And I am not going to regret it one bit. Some things in life are meant to be thoroughly enjoyed! 

Plan your little vacation and enjoy the reckless abandonment we should all indulge in precious few moments like these! Besides, if you have been large and in charge most of your life like yours truly, you have also been thoroughly stressed out and depressed, too. We deserve it.


Wish me luck with the chips on my shoulders i gotta take care of before i leave (man! I really feel like some chips right now, Queso Ruffles anyone?)

Oh, and here is a shout-out to my big sis: Thanks for convincing me to go, YOU FUCKING ROCK!!!!
