Wasting Time

What do you do that wastes time?

Thinking about this question made me remember last weekend.
My husband and I took his mom out for her birthday and we were trying to keep track of time in order to make a movie. My husband asked me the time on several occasions throughout the afternoon and, not wearing a watch, I had a sense of what time it was within about 10 minutes. Each time I made my prediction we would find a clock to confirm my accuracy. It became a game for my husband and made me acutely aware of how much attention I pay to time.

Time has hogged my attention for most of my life. In fact, the first poem I wrote as a teenager was about time and how quickly it goes.

I have to wonder, is this what I should be paying attention to? Or does spending too much time thinking about time actually waste time?
