Neglectful

I'm neglecting too many things. I just got an email from my mom, which made me realize that I haven't called my parents since Easter. I guess because I haven't had anything good to talk about, but that's not really a good reason. Also, it's my father's birthday today (58!), and I completely forgot about that. And it's Mother's Day on Sunday, and I didn't send a card or a gift or anything. I feel like a bad person right now.

I also need to clean my room. It's an awful mess, crap everywhere. It's always cluttered, but things are getting out of control. And I need to figure out the cable bill, and get my car inspected. And find a new credit card that has a 0% APR, so I can transfer my mega-balance to that so I don't have to pay $80 per month in interest. At least I finished a load of laundry this morning. That was way overdue, too. And I bought stamps this morning, which I've also been meaning to do all week. I guess that's progress?

I've been in my head so much, alternately wallowing in and trying to distract myself from all the hurt, I haven't been paying attention to those banal little details of life that need tending to. It's hard to muster the energy. But I guess I have to somehow.
