Why can't there be 30 hours in a day?*

For the past two weeks, I feel like I've been running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I have way too much to do and way too little time to do it in. I have huge To Do lists for a variety of things. There's my Work To Do list and my School To Do list and my Life To Do list.

Then there are other things that I'd like to be doing, but am so busy doing the stuff I have to be doing that I have no time for it. Like writing, for instance. I feel badly that I haven't sent in queries about certain things I should have done by now, and that I haven't sent any reviews to The Product Junkie in quite a while.

The thing that nearly sent me off the edge this week was the Life To Do list. I had so much to do (errands and laundry and selling on ebay and such) and not enough time to do it in. I guess I'm still trying to get back into the swing of figuring out what tasks I can do when, like how much I can fit into my lunch hour or the hour between work and school on Tuesday and Thursday nights. Next week I have a hair appointment on Wednesday (my usual Get Shit Done night), a wax between work and school on Thursday and yet another dentist appointment on Friday morning (for more numbing and cavity drilling fun). BLEH.

The other thing I realized this week is that for other couples, if one person can't do something, they can ask the other one to do it. Then there's us. Since he's gone during the week, if I have to do 10 things from Monday - Thursday, it's all on me to do all of them. If I don't have the time to do them all, oh well; I just have to figure out what I can let slip and what I can't. I need at least 30 hours in the day, I think. That should do it.

Can anyone arrange that? That'd be great. Thanks.
