Woman 1: I like making a schedule for the day's work. Really makes you be honest about how long things take, and how much is reasonable to expect to accomplish.
Woman 2: Assuming you stick to the schedule.
Woman 1: Of course. But I _want_ to! Now that it's down on paper, I picture a little me, perkily spending the time from 9:30 to 10:00 putting laundry away.
Woman 1: I'm telling the story of the me I _want_ to be! The me who puts laundry away before 10 and then still has time to knit a while before bed. It also defines a set of victory conditions for the day to come!
Woman 2: You do love parameters
Woman 2: So? basically your day planner is fanfic for your real life.
Woman 1: Be the Mary Sue you want to see in the world
