i am not a superwoman.

i think it is currently universally accepted that everyone should be able to juggle multiple large roles, and still be able to function properly.  am i right?  i mean, what happened to "less is more"?  what happened to simplicity and necessity?  what the fuck is all this stuff that's mucking up everyone's life?  i don't even have the energy to think of what kind of "stuff" this "stuff" could be.  but why is more of everything always better?

or is everyone just super sloth-like?  and is apathy plaguing my generation?

i guess it doesn't really matter...my point is...i am not a superwoman.  sometimes, i wish i were.  i wish i were able to finish everything i need to, and still have time for pleasure.  and other times, i wish i could be able to survive off the most simple lifestyle.  keeping things simple eliminates all that muck that clutters my life.

so i suppose i'm sort of resorting back to the basics.  early bed-times.  simple schedules.  simple wishes.  simple friends (this one's tough).  simple thoughts.  and hopefully by doing so, i will be able to eliminate the daily headaches that i am being infected with.

i am un-mucking my life because i am not a superwoman.
