The Minutiae That Ate My Life.
All of those
little things -
errands, forms, notes, crap - that seem to totally
eat up your day. None of it is exciting and you can't quite believe that at the end of the day, you've nothing to show for it.
"What did you do today, honey?"
"The bank,
the carwash, the drycleaners, the
drugstore, then back to the bank. It's so boring, I can't talk about it because I get depressed. It's the
minutiae that ate my life."
