Procrastinators Unite...Tomorrow!

Every Tuesday night, my husband and I have the same routine. The evening consists of our weekly viewing of the most over-the-top show on TV...Nip/Tuck. We're both completely riveted to the tube when the episode is playing, commercials consist of comments to eachother such as, "What the hell was he thinking", "They ALL are f'd up", and "I can't believe we watch this trash". When the show concludes, we anxiously "stay tuned for scenes from next week's all new episode of Nip/Tuck", and proceed to shake our heads while turning off all the lamps as we go upstairs to bed. For anyone who saw last night's episode, I hope you would agree with me when I say that I hope Matt is dead. He and Sean are about the most ignorant characters on the show. The writers have set up Christian to be the only one with any sense this season. I thought one of the most hilarious scenes from last night's episode was when Sean thought he was having a heart attack in the midst of hot sex with Eden. For the uninitiated, Eden is Sean's ex-wife's girlfriend's daughter...Yep - "They ALL are f'd up".

Okay - that was my pop reference for the day. On to the b$t^@ of the day: I am a procrastinator. I've recognized a pattern in myself lately and it will be difficult to overcome. I'm not too sure though if it will hinder my professional success. For example, a couple of posts ago, I was b&t%#ing about waiting on news from a job interview. Well, today was my 6th interview...and I still am no closer to getting an offer than I was before. Why? Because the company has no idea what position they are interviewing me for - and I am evidently desperate enough to keep having ambiguous conversations with them. They have no open positions, but they like me and want to use me but have no idea where to put me. They are procrastinating and they have about a $billion under management. Procrastination doesn't seem to have hurt them any.

I need fellowship with other procrastinators and would love to hear your stories. Please tell me how procrastinating has positively impacted your life in the comments section.

Until next post - C-ya....later.
