Procrastination is the thief of time....!!!
|
Sheesh...I actually been so busy at work today that I have not gotten a chance to get my daily Diaryland fix. But the workday is not complete until logon on D*land at least once. It�s my own damn fault that I got work shit pilled up the wazoo. This whole week and most of last week I have been bs�n and just surfin the net all day long. So of course my little workload seems like a lot cause I have been procrastinating big time. My job is challenging yet for me is fun and kinda easy. My supervisor is cool as hell and allows me to come and go as I please... as long as I get my work done and don�t make her look bad. In some ways that�s a good thing, but for me, it�s also a bad thing. I love that my supervisor has taken me under her wing and is more of a mentor than a supervisor. She will request my help on things but is not bossy or pushy and doesn�t constantly look over my shoulder and rarely gives me deadlines. But unfortunately, I am one of those people who NEEDS deadlines if you want me to get anything done. Even when I have deadlines I still wait until the last damn minute to do shit. But it works for me. I can�t tell you the number of times I would wait until 11:00 pm to start a paper that was due the next morning at 8:00 am when I was in school. But I always got my shit done and never turned in a paper late or had to request an extension. What�s really bad is I always got good grade on my last minute papers, which we know from Psych 101 only reinforced my already bad behavior. One of my favorite teachers at TU, Dr. T was constantly getting on my case about waiting until the last minute to do my work. He would always say "Procrastination is the thief of time!" Since I worked for Dr. T in the computer lab and as his teachers aid, he knew my terrible work ethics, but he also new the quality work that I always did...which caused him to natural love me...yeah, so what I was a teachers pet, and I loved it. I loved it even more when I got to grade the papers of stupid bitches that I hated and got plaster their test with red ink! Teach those tricks from getting on my bad side. To this day, I still remember Dr. T�s encouraging words on procrastination. I remember, the quote, but rarely do I practice it. Oh well, maybe one day I will learn. Imagine my surprise when I got a card from j-mac in the mail yesterday. It�s still more than a month until my b-day, which is the only time j-mac sends me a card via snail mail. Every once in a blue moon he will send me an online greeting card, and that�s usually after I have sent him one. I was excited to get the card, even though it was not the most romantic looking card in the world...it had a picture of some freakin dominoes on the front...what da hell. But the words that he wrote on the inside is what got my heart racin from excitement. I have come to the conclusion that j-mac aint the most romantic man out there. His idea of romance is walking in my room getting butt naked and begging me to climb on top of him. So getting a card from him put me on a natural high. Maybe my threats to him of having to work extra hard to win my heart back are working. Now let�s see if he has followed thru with the promise of coming out here in October. Only 3 more days until the big move!!! Hip hip hooray. I went and looked at my empty apartment the other day and I am in love. I was so thrilled that I almost forgot that I�m bout to pay a shit load of money to live in 724 sq feet box. But that�s okay, my box has a fireplace, dishwasher, microwave, washer/dryer, ceiling fans, walk-in closet (that still aint gonna hold all my clothes and shoes), oversized patio that I can enter from my living room and my bedroom, extra storage on the patio, two swimming pools, exercise room, and get this...a small lake on the property that has paddle boats that tenets can use for FREE! You know that�s what sold me. I will probably only use the paddleboats once or twice, but I just love the thought of being able to use them. Even though I am probably going to have reduce my monthly clothing allowance from $200 to $100 and push the thought of a new car outta my head, I am happy to be able have a place to call my own. |
