Queen of Procrastination



I am supposed to be studying chapter 3 in my overly large biology book. It has a great picture of a chameleon on the cover. If I'd bought it at the SLCC bookstore I would have paid $193 but I got it off KSL and only paid $70 ("only"). Anyway, I'm supposed to be learning about covalent bonds. My mind keeps wandering. In fact, it just wandered all the way into another room and onto the computer. I've been checking my email: reading and replying. I've also been Google-ing random things. Did you know that gasses escaping a body being cremated sound like a scream. I bet that's a change of underwear experience for the first day on the job. I've told the boys off a couple of times for fighting over the Nintendo. Dinner crossed my mind - that can surely wait. Or perhaps I should check out the Food Network, they've always got good ideas. I like the "stick of butter on everything" lady. Judge Judy is on later. Perhaps I'll tune in and count how many times she calls someone an idiot. Hey, isn't American Idol on tonight? Simon will surely tell someone they sound like a dying cat. That's classic. My mother should be awake right about now, I think I'll call her. It's been a while. I wander what the weather is like down there? Oh, I just got an email from Asher's class about their Valentine's party. Looks like I get to read stories to the kids. Excellent. I like making up parts, it keeps them on their toes. Anyone have a favorite story I can read to the kids? Did I call Jilly back? Have I checked out everyone's blogs yet?

OK! OK! I'll get back to it. But before I do, I just have to add a picture of my kids watching The Polar Express 3D at their cousins house. Then I'll quickly fold some clothes, clean the kitchen, and pick up the toys. After all, class doesn't start until 5:30.

Tracey-You crack me up! I am pretty positive I would be doing the same thing if I were in school... ;)

Mmmmmhmmmm. Deano told me what you were googling. Bet that was lovely. hahahaha

I just read your last post too. Don't delete your blog. I like reading it. Even if you only post every 6 months or so. I mean, it's not like you are busy or anything right?

i hear you. i am definitely a procrastinator. I think most of my uni essays were started the night before. But at least procrastination led to buying tickets to NZ!!

So that's why you got that car. I'm just glad you didn't let that little secret out to your nieces before they finished college. As for procrastinating, I'm still behind in my geo - 30 years behind. Guess I got an 'F'.
