P for Procrastination

This seems to be a running trend in my introductions to the post.  I'm basically on here because I don't want to be doing whatever it is that I'm supposed to.  In this instance, it is catching up on the 4 chapters of Orgo that I have neglected for the past 2 weeks, a lab report that is due next Wednesday and a Pop quiz that is most likely going to happen on Monday.  Basically, I'm really tired and haven't had enough caffeine to keep me going through the rest of the night.  Combine that with the knowledge that I've got about 11 hours of driving ahead of me tomorrow, I'm not really excited to get up and do things.

"Why the long drive?" you may ask.  Excellent question, I'm so glad you asked!!!

I'm heading down to see my brother's new apartment in Myrtle Beach.  Little brother has made the long and arduous journey back from California (this time managing to make it cross-country without being robbed) and has settled himself into his new job in the lovely resort area of Myrtle Beach.

Things I know about Myrtle Beach:

1.  It is a beach.
2. They play a lot of golf.
3. The word "Myrtle" is hilarious.  Like a matronly turtle. Myrtle.
4.  Let's not kid ourselves, that's all I've got.

On the bright side I'm really looking forward to seeing my brother.  While he can be absolutely infuriating in his lack of description and one word answers, as well as the straight up smart assery that he adopted in California, he's still my twin and I genuinely missed him.  Maybe now we'll call more (most likely not, please see the previous note involving "smart assery" and "lack of description"). We all know how I feel about descriptors.  I will give you every last detail about the day if you give me the chance. Whether you want to hear it or not, you will know.  EVERYTHING.

So Mom and I are going to go on a road trip, meet up in Dover, and head on down to see the only male offspring.  And while we're at it, we're being put to work straightening up the place, helping decorate, and things of that ilk.  Hurray for being free labor.

With that, dearest Internet, I will be signing off for now. Please come up with something interesting for me to read or waste time on the next time I pop by, I'm fairly disappointed with the limited array that you have provided thus far.

Hugs and snuggles,
L

Chem Break

Hello All,

This post is brought to you by the letter "P" for "Procrastination."  Procrastination has been the theme of this weekend.  Why do today what you could put off until the last absolute minute and then panic and put out a crap result?? Exactly.

This weekend I have barely accomplished anything.  Laundry is done and all put away (a feat that took me only TWO FULL DAYS to get around to.) Everything was dry by the end of Friday night (as was the bottle of wine that I had opened), but for some reason all of yesterday just slipped into oblivion. I can't even remember what I did yesterday.  I think it involved several hours (read 6+) of Cartoon Network.  Between Fairly Oddparents, Dragonball Z Kai (a blast from the past by the by, my brother and I were cracking up), and Avatar: The Last Air Bender, I just couldn't be bothered to do anything about life in general.  Oh, and then Annie Get Your Gun (with all of it's aggressively racist slurs towards Native Americans) was on.

I think there is a permanent indent in the couch from where I sat/laid yesterday.

Either way, I'm still behind on everything today, but have discovered that I am far more productive when thrown into someone else's home (My aunt and uncle are gone, I'm "baby sitting" which is laughable, V can take care of herself, but it's better to have someone who can drive at the house.) It's so much easier to do work when someone else has homework, too.

Even with all of that motivation going on, I'm still here, writing away.  I guess the truth of the matter is that after 2.5 hours of chemistry homework, I need a mental break.  And some food.  Time to rummage.

XO,
L
