Does it bother you...

... when you are eating and a very specific and detailed commercial for genital wart medicine comes on tv?

Procrastination as an Art Form
2001-10-22 22:51:18
Okay, today started off bright and early as it usually does on Mondays around 10am. No school today, but I had to do the usual going-out routine but I forgot to stop at the grocery store on the way home. I was on autopilot and I turned too early and ended up, magically, at home. No biggie, I'll go out later to get a jug of water and some bread. After I do the reading assignments for all of my classes.
It's now ~8pm and I haven't gone the store or finished my reading.
Here's what I found to do to put off those boring chores: other boring chores. I made breakfast (more like lunch) and then cleaned the kitchen. Then I remembered that I needed to finish, immediately, some updates to a client website. So there goes another couple of hours. Woulda been done last nite, but I had Band of Brothers and the first disc of Ah, My Goddess to watch. (Or Oh My Goddess if you prefer)
Now that my professional duties were over with, what else could I do instead of my homework? The excersize bike still had the last pedal to put together. The bike was almost complete! Yes... the whole bike came totally non-assembled and *I* put it together. That deserves it's own safety hazzard sticker right there. So with that finally put together, I rode the bike and did a basic fitness routine and I reaffirmed my earlier suspicions that all excersize is boring. It helps to have a nagging problem to chew over while you work out, but as it was I just had a bitch-fest recently so I had no need. I had to *scrounge up* past infuriating events just to keep pedalling a few more minutes. My heartrate was up, my cardiovascular duties were near over. After stretching and cooling down, I still had to figure out what I was going to do before starting my homework.
E-mail! I could check up on some old friends, so I shot off a few 'mails.
That left the only option I could think of: a nap. Yes, a good ol' nap will get those brain juices flowin'. Well, after about an hour of being woken up by phone calls, I figured I was well rested enough to tackle my task at hand.
But! It was getting late and it was time to make dinner. So I whipped up some reliable mac and cheese. That brings me up to current; what the hell can I do to delay the inevitable? Aha! I got it:
Write a damned long journal entry.

AMV History
2001-10-21 17:48:37
Just replied to someone's questionnaire about amv's and his question of amv history stumped me. I had no resources on this! I even tried a web search with absolutely no luck. One result turned up a list of nothing but porn sites. The funniest title was "Welcome to huge amateur tit, drew barrymore hair style and ... "
People are really silly. -
*hic*
2001-10-21 02:54:17
I just got a chronic case of the hiccups. The kind that are no longer under your control... you can't hiccup quietly with these. They make their presence known to everyone. It doesn't help when people mock you. :( Ever notice that nobody can really mimic a hiccup perfectly?
Whenever I get hiccups this bad I am always afraid that they will never go away. Like the 90 year old guy in Guiness Records who had hiccups for 40 years straight until he died. Even while he slept. Now that's scary.
Okay, here's a tip that was just passed on to me: take and hold three deep breaths and hold them longer than the last one each time. It is supposed to help yer diaphram relax. It worked! Hooray! -
Gaaaaaaahhhhh!!!

No, much worse than gah. Someone has already done the amv idea I have been planning for months now. Same music, same anime. Such a great idea, too. My best one. Damn. The only other "great" idea I have is to an anime I don't really like. There goes the originality score for it when I finally do create it, which I will. I *must*. What sucks is that it will probably be exactly like the other one, which I haven't seen since it's not currently available for dl. I can only imagine one way of doing it, and it's based on such a small part of the anime for the really good parts.
*sigh*
And I had just ordered the CD for it on Monday.
*double sigh*
I feel a very big mope coming on.
