Things I don’t have time for

My hair
I can’t be bothered to do my hair most days. On wash days, I let it air-dry and embrace the wavy or put it in a bun or a braid or a braid-bun. On non-wash days I bust out my hot rollers from ye olde days of yore. On special occasions (job interviews, etc.) I might be compelled to use the flat iron, but usually? NOTHANKS. I do think, though, that most people are either hair people or makeup people. I am a makeup person. It’s not like I won’t go out without makeup on, but I much prefer makeup to hair. If my face is made-up, is anyone really noticing the hair? No.

Anything on Bravo that’s not Real Housewives
Now, I have been known to watch some Million Dollar Listing LA or some Princesses: Long Island (really just Housewives-In-Training, when you think about it), but by and large, ain’t nobody got time for the Singles Project or Jersey Belle or any of that shit. (I have heard that Game of Crowns was amazing, but alas, I didn’t watch it.)

Tweezing my eyebrows
Are we sensing a theme here with the hair avoidance? But you know, I went through a long period of obsessively over-tweezing my eyebrows and now that that’s broken, it’s like, I don’t have time to go get them waxed on the regular and no one is that close to my face to ever notice an errant eyebrow hair, so FUCK IT. (I still keep up with the unibrow situation because PLEASE.)

Washing my yoga mat
I have had my yoga mat for over 10 years and I’ve washed it once. Have you ever washed a yoga mat? It’s a pain in the ass. Plus, I feel like if I am just getting it gross each time I use it and then going home and taking a shower, what’s the point? It’s all my own filth. Meh. (I guess I could also add to the Things I Don’t Have Time For list: Buy a new yoga mat. Ten years is a long time, but at this point I’m kind of attached to it.)

What do you not have time for?

    I am with you on Bravo. Nothing else grabs my attention at ALL. I gave Jersey Belle a go, but meh.

    Oh! You know! I did rather like Untying the Knot about a divorce mediator who would go in and help divorcing couples. There was a tidgy bit of drama along with some poor man’s Antique Roadshow as couples tried to price and offload valuables in the mediation.

    And I don’t have time for cooking dinner. I just really, really don’t care most days. I try to care and give it the college try (for the children’s sake only), but blah. Hate it.

    Anything marked Dry Clean Only. Coupons. My hair. Pedicures (though I DO paint/upkeep at home).

    HA! I was totally going to say coupons. Also, ironing. If I have to iron something when it comes out of the dryer it will never get worn again. And getting my hair cut. I mean, I love getting my hair cut, but the people who do it every 8 weeks? AIN’T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT. 🙂
