Monkey see, monkey do

Who says watching YouTube for hours is unproductive? What's that? Everyone who has the ability to be productive? Oh okay. I say it can be extremely productive. Well, not the stationary watching of bright screens. The looking into other people's life and being motivated part. I'll explain.

I have been going on and on and on and on about how I want to be more active. That didn't quite stem from me being too pudgy. It came from me watching others having fun and getting around in ways that required an elevated heart beat. Today, however, was the best example. I have been trying to do my laundry for two weeks. Pathetic, I know. I started it last week and took to long to finish causing myself to be ousted.

My continued avoidance of the task attributed to the chaos that is my room. I started my laundry again today. That is after I sat in bed until 1 in the afternoon. Then I went to a movie and continued to postpone finishing the job. Finally I loaded the last load into the wash and what happened? I forgot about it. What was all that chatter I was doing about YouTube? Oh yeah. Watching a YouTube video where a lady was discussing her difficulty staying on top cleaning tasks I remembered I'm still doing laundry. Thanks to her I may actually finish tonight. Yeah other people's productivity being my motivation.
