Another day, another chance to procrastinate

If I had to choose a literary location for where I feel my life is right now, it would be Purgatario. I spend the first part of my day at the gym, I spend the next part of my day avoiding the reading I should be doing for class, usually the class I have that night. Class, however, only happens 3 days a week, so in theory, I should be able to accomplish everything I need to get done over my 4 day weekends. Of course, this would make too much sense.

I'm quite confident that my procrastination is due to my need for scheduling. I have too much free time on my hands. My apartment isn't big enough to take up much time being cleaned. I can only be at the gym so long before I just get bored. Pittsburgh, while it is a lovely city, doesn't offer the same amount of entertainment and visual stimulation opportunities that I was used to in DC, and certainly not what I'm used to when I'm in New York.

Over the past week I've explored Lawrenceville, the Three Rivers Arts Festival, and found a great new organic grocery store, Right by Nature, in the Strip District. I think I am going to make a "Bucket List" of sorts to help me find ways to fill my schedule, and hopefully stay on track with my final semester of classes.

Where should I go and what should I do in the Pittsburgh area before I leave? Hmmm... this should provide entertainment for class tonight.
