Kinda boring, kinda trying to be funny, kinda awkward, kinda human.
@RodrigoRoesler Been on a Bo Burnham binge (holy alliteration, Batman) lately... I suppose the segue back into Tim Minchin was likely to happen some time very soon anyway.

Also darnit now I have to listen to the song! I mean... thank you for reminding me!
@RodrigoRoesler I just really love 'em.
@[email protected] Yeah, that as well! Also I am the kind of person that easily go overboard and plan to do 36 hours worth of stuff in a day, so I thought I might have to show myself that things in fact can get done if I go little by little as well. ;)
@[email protected] Yes. I know that if I start out too hard... among other things I will have "nothing left to do here" a little too often to form an actual habit as the doing the thing every weekday part is sort of necessary for me to do that.

Right now, week 1, I have mostly just set up a routine for just... 15 minute tidying in each room every day. And I am just wrapping up whatever I am doing and moving to the next "station" when the alarm goes off. (I also put in a 15 minute coffee break 🤣) But I am seeing a massive change to what I actually get done!

My procrastinating, overthinking-the-chores-until-they-seem-insurmountable, easily distracted, suddenly been doing one simple chore for hours because ooops I focused too hard and set a perfectionist standard on when it's done, "couldn't form a routine if her life depended on it" -self have been trying out a routine tracker/scheduling app with alarms at the beginning AND end of tasks and...

Wtf? I am 100 times less exhausted while getting three times as much done in a day as I used to!

There is an old saying (in Norway) that Norwegians are born with skis on their feet (paraphrase-y translation)...

I spent an awful lot of my early childhood wondering what nationality that made me... What's the opposite of Norwegian?

@melindrea (ro is calm, ease and still, not sure how much it covers in swedish but at least here it's got enough cover that the negation of it covers a lot 🤣
@melindrea
We do pop an "u" in front of a lot of stuff to get to the opposite meaning.. enough that I remember as a really small child assuming an "ubåt" had that name because it somehow did the opposite of a boat.
