Five Things Friday- Procratination

If this list was "Five Things I'm Good At", procrastination would be at the top. Making lists would also be up there, but that's because I enjoy planning everything out, only to procrastinate following it through. I never said that I was normal. So here it is, the top five things that I love to procrastinate on. I don't have an explanation as to why; it's just the way I am.

The Laundry. Have we covered this topic extensively enough? Yes? Alright, let's move on.
Leaving the House. This one mystifies me. The Little Lady and I love to leave the house, I'd put it up there as one of our favorite pastimes. However, I'm almost always running late. I think, "I can just read one more blog or do a load of dishes." Heh, wrong. I always underestimate how long it takes us to get out of the house and to our destination.
Deadlines. I work my best at the end of a deadline. Papers turned in at 11:59 PM, the day they are due. Tickets paid right before a Warrant is issued. I like to leave things until the very last minute. Just in case I decide to change my mind.
Buying Gifts. I have the best intentions. I love to pour over gift guides, planning the perfect gift. When I find something I tell myself that the occasion is too far away, I'll just buy it later. And then never do. Or forget. Not cool.
Getting oil changes. I am very aware how many miles my car has on it. I also know when I'm due for my next oil change. (Ok, when my car is due, I try to refrain from getting my oil changed.) However, the time comes and passes and it's like pulling teeth to get me to go into the garage. Strange. I always have to apologize to the mechanic, and then to my car, for not keeping her up like I should.

A Giveaway, A Giveaway!

Well fellow inter-friends, I was going to post today about my experience with the Wii Fit. However, upon looking at my post number I realized that today was post #95. Which means that I get to announce the nifty little giveaway I have planned for post #100. Giveaway you say? Oh yes, just keep reading folks. I'm not going to get too introspective and sentimental today. After all, I have to leave myself something to write for the hundredth post. I'm excited that I made it this far. When I started out I really, really hoped that I'd actually write in this space and feel motivated enough to keep writing here. And I do! I like having something to do everyday that is for me, and really (sorry to disappoint you) only me. We can discuss this at more length next week, when I've actually made it to one hundred. So, the details. I want to know more about who you are. Yes, you! The people that come and read my stuff everyday. Or every week. Heck, if you're just pa...

A Confession

First let me come clean. I'm pregnant. Now, let the next thirty-one weeks commence where I talk of nothing else except my growing belly, appetite and need for Cheetos. Not really, but I will say this; I'm tired. So tired that normal everyday tasks that should only take me a few minutes suddenly sit around, unfinished, for days at a time. Examples? The dishwasher, the dirty dishes, groceries (the non-perishable ones, duh), folding the laundry, making the bed. I mean, there are much better things to do, like, stuff handfuls of popcorn in my mouth while watching all the episodes of Angel, in order. Don't judge me, I am returning to school in a few weeks; maybe this is just me trying desperately to channel myself as a Freshman in college? Who the heck knows. What I do know that my "golden time," or nap time as it is commonly called, was once used to clean, cook, tidy up, rest and blog. Well, you know how much blogging I've done o...

Now You See Me, Later You Won't

Although I've been away from this space for quite some time I was surprised to see that people were still reading it. Go me! So, although I am not going to be blogging in this space for much longer, I'm going to leave it up for the time being. If nothing else as a way for people to find me in my next space. Next space you say? Yes, I'm moving. When I started this blog things were very different from what they are now. I thought we were moving abroad much sooner, I was not going to school and there were no definite plans for a second baby. That being said, the last few months I felt like I was not able to really be comfortable in this space. So I'm opting to move someplace else, under a different blog name and start again. I really hope that you will move over with me; I've so enjoyed having you along for the ride! So, sometime soon I will post about my new digs. As soon as I find the time to put something up over...
