Procrastination Part II: Never Give Up

Really. I can't stop. I can't start. I've now played 29,181 games of Solitaire. Help me. I am completely incapable of getting anything done.

9) Other Work
I have a paper to write, and a midterm to take, and journals to do. But instead, I should really really get all my readings done. Going to class unprepared just isn't acceptable.

10) My Roommate
Why do endless amounts of work when I can look to my right and strike up a conversation with my lovely roommate?

11) Television and Movies
Last night I watched Waitress and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (the creepy one with Johnny Depp) with my roommate. In the past few days I have also caught up on the fourth season of Big Love - 7 episodes in 2 days - and I am currently flying through Roswell.

12) Hunting for my dream house and dream pets
This is a little ridiculous, but I enjoy spending time scrolling through real estate listings, looking for my dream home. I also watch endless episodes of House Hunters. I've also spent more than a few hours looking up pets on petfinder.com and Best Friends and trying to decide who I can see spending a few years with. Really. I actually do this.

13) Neopets and ZooWorld
Not only can I pretend that I'm 8 years old, but I can nurture fake pets and play games and build the Largest Zoo in the World.

14) Me Me Me Me
I'll go look at my Facebook profile and edit it to more purely reflect my inner self. Or I'll blog about myself in order to feel like I'm getting something done.

15) The Appearance of Progress
When I finally buckle down and start something, I always begin by inserting my header with page number, then writing my name, and the class, and the date, etc. And the title. And then I'll go ahead and do the works cited page ahead of time, so I don't have to worry about it later. And voila! Words on a screen. Progress. Not.
