If it isn't going to rain I want to go for a walk. If it is going to rain, then not so much. So in the meantime I am PROCRASTINATING. Oh I am fooling myself into thinking that by writing this entry I am doing something creative, but really I am PROCRASTINATING.
The Merriam Webster dictionary defines procrastinate thusly : to put off intentionally the doing of something that should be done. Hmmmmm so what if I put off the doing of something that should be done with something else that should be done? Are you following me?
I could clean the kitchen! Psht, like that's going to happen.
I could wash the floors! See above.
I could work in the garden! See opening statement re weather.
I could go play with the foster kittens! Now that I can get behind. And they do need attention as I don't think their interaction with humans has been particularly positive.
I can procrastinate about things I really want and like doing. What's up with that? I should be working on the two new songs I am writing. I should be reading plays in search of a new monologue. I should be writing one of the 3 scripts I am creating.
The thing is once I get started I will devote myself completely to the chosen task...........until the next shiny thing pops into my Gemini brain.
What the heck? Am I lazy, undisciplined, too easily distracted?
Hahaha I just found the most awesome sentence on the Merriam Webster site while I was searching synonyms for distracted: < she's been distracted about her son ever since he left on the polar expedition>
You see? I could easily spend an hour noodling around on a thesaurus site! And don't let me near youtube.
Nope! No more screwing around. I will go for a walk.................maybe. But I need to eat first. Ooooo, I wonder what is this week's recipe on my favourite vegan cooking blogs?
