From the Outside-Looking-In files:
It was a normal Saturday, one in an endless procession of repeats. Kate was sitting on her couch, a mug of steaming coffee by her side. The children are playing quietly downstairs, her sister's away and nothing really disturbed her calm save for the rhythmic tick-tock of the wall clock.
She’s bored. Very bored.
There’s a pile of work to be done. Her room is a mess. There are dirty dishes in the kitchen waiting to be washed. She’s half a week behind on her studies. There’s taxes to be calculated, laundry to be washed, a million billion chores to be done.
Did I mention she’s also procrastinating?
Suddenly, the MacBook on her lap beeped at her. It was time for her 1 minute eyesight rest break.
Ah, bliss...nothing sweeter than mandated idleness!
