Procrastination
WHY do I create a blog entry saying "I'll get back to it" or "updates forthcoming" when I know damn well that I procrastinate? (See "Snapshots of a Career" entry) As I type this, I'm mid-homework (several activities) which I should have done earlier so I could be sleeping right now. I put so many things off till the last minute, including departure to appointments and meetings, but I'll talk about that more later :)
Today I headed off to my sister's-in-law apartment for a homemade pizza... leaving 10 minutes late. When I finally got there, I made up 5 minutes, but then I couldn't remember which frickin' apartment was hers! I knocked on what I thought was her door to see strangers standing on the other side. The occupants didn't know who "Regina" was and worse yet, I forgot to take my cell-phone which meant I couldn't call anyone for directions. So after walking the halls and pounding on a few random doors (confusing even more strangers), I went back to the first door and asked to use their phone... I needed to go one door over. I knew my instincts were good, but my sense of direction sucks. If I hadn't procrastinated leaving the house, I would have only been 5-10 minutes late, rather than 20. I deserved the ribbing I received from the family.
