X Is Seemingly Beside The Point

Ok, I need to do X

What is X?

It really doesn't matter

Because whatever X is

It is certainly not getting done today

Reason being is that 

Squirrel!

Or it could be something actually impor....

Shiny Penny!

Last night I tried to get to bed just right

I brushed my teeth and set the alarm

Let the dogs out one last time

Which was when my gaze fell upon my budding typewriter farm

I'm hoping to breed them you see

I have two Olivers set as close as can be

With candles and roast quail

Romantic music and champagne in an ice pail

One is a model number 9

And the other is a number 11

I'm hoping what will happen

Is some pollination magic to net me a number 10

Oh! and just past that are some pictures I've been meaning to hang

And I've got all the stuff right there too

Hangers and hammers with wire and brass eyes

With an old cotton apron that pokes vinyl corners into my thighs

I just need to set the level over here

And slap a chalk line just there

A measure and a mark

Then a whack of the hammer and....

Boy do the stairs need vacuuming

There is dog and cat hair all over them

I should go get the sweeper right now while I'm thinking of it

I could probably collect it all into a ball and knit up a pet sweater

I'll bet I could learn to do that online

Seems to actually be several more places than one

Aha, here is a place that even sells pet hair yarn premade!

And they've given it the name of "Woofspun"

Crap, what was it I was supposed to be doing?

Oh bag it, I'll go change the oil in my car instead

Driven to distraction by all the things around me

Until I'm miles away from where I started

And the one thing I set out to do
