The Eternal Quandary...

I have many things I need to get done at home. I would like these to be done, as I also have lots of things that I would like to do when I get home. While I would much rather do the things I would like to do, rather than those things I need to do, I know that if I do all those things I would like to do then, time being finite, I will run out of time to do those things I need to do, meaning I will reach the point where I needed to have them done by and they won't be done. Therefore, due to the aforementioned finite nature of time, I know that do get things I need done, you know, done, I will have to do the things I need done done before I can do the things I'd like to get done. But unfortunately this means that it is most likely that the remaining time I do have left to get anything done will have run out by the time I get the things I need done done, leaving me no time to get to do the things I would like to get done.

All in all I find myself in part wishing I'd had the time to get the things I need to get done done before now. But although I'll admit some of them need to be done now because I did some of the things I wanted to get done when I could have been doing things that I needed to be doing, the truth is there were other things that, back then, that I also needed to get done, and in getting them done I left myself with less time to to do the things I wanted to do, which in turn increased the amount of time I had to wait to do these things, which only increases the amount that I want to do them.

You all see my problem?
