Get Yourself Together

It's not just something that you have to do.  It's a state of mind.

Okay.  You've had your little trips.  You've done your little chilling.  You've had your little time.  Now it's time to kick it back into gear.  Now it's time to Get Yourself Together.

Fall semester is just around the corner and you haven't decided on your classes yet?  Um, I'm gonna have to ask you to Get Yourself Together.

Whining and worrying about people trying to talk to you, not knowing what to do, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.  Um, why are you expending precious mind energy on these cats?  You need all the brain juice you can muster up.  Who says you have to do anything concerning them anyway?  Talk to who you want to talk to and don't talk to who you don't want to talk to.  That simple.  No reason to go into existential mode.  Like, I said, it's time to Get Yourself Together.

Ranting about your slight weight gain?  Clothes on the verge of feeling uncomfortably filled out (even though you haven't officially gone up a size)?  Well, there's a rec center at your disposal with your butt's name written on it.  Ain't nobody stopping you.  Get Yourself Together.

Just cause you made a little extra dough teaching test prep doesn't mean that you don't have bills to pay and that you don't need to keep track of your spending.  Oh, I got your attention now, don't I?  I have a little 3-step program you need to follow: 1. Get. 2. Yourself. 3. Together.

Drive back to your little nest, make a shopping list and replenish your fridge, pay your bills, choose your classes and get to work!  Woman up, honey.  You know what time it is.  It's not time to mope.  It's not time to freak out.  It's not time to let your eyes glaze over in nostalgic reminiscence.  It's time to Get Yourself Together!
