things you'd rather be doing

a good friend and i use to pay this game when were both at work. we both work jobs where we just sit in front of a computer doing pointless things and talking on the phone. jobs that only exist to facilitate capitalism, you know what i mean?
anyway, we work these jobs we both hate (actually, he doesn't work his anymore, he quit and is going to law school) and during the day we'd tell each other the 3 things we'd rather be doing.
like:
reading, hiking, eating pancakes
or
cooking a huge breakfast with friends, sleeping in, eating outside
or
sitting in a field of wildflowers, dreaming, having sex
or
swimming, cuddling, writing
or
reading, riding a horse, hanging out with you

you get the idea. all 2 of you that might read this.
today my list is much longer than 3 things. today i'm thinking about how much energy i put into doing things i don't want to do and thinking about things i'd rather be doing. and also, the reason(s) i'm not doing them.
