Try

Today is what I would call trying.

I tried to get out of bed on time, even though my dog contested.

I tried to give a crap, though my mind was just saying crap.

I tried to focus at work when all I could focus on was play.

I tried to drink 8 glasses of water throughout the day. I think I got down 3.

I tried to stay awake after lunch, but I am sure my chicken noodle soup had MSGs.

I tried to keep my mind pure. Riight. Do you know who all I talk to in a day?

I tried to remain in my chair. Riight. Do you know who I work with?

I tried not to gossip. Riight again.

I tried to keep my radio low enough for only me to hear, but loud enough so that I could not hear HER voice.

I will try again tomorrow.
