my problem with procrastination is that i am so NOT the master of efficiency, so every time i procrastinate i miss all of my deadlines. and yet i procrastinate anyway.

this? is what we call irresponsibility.

Abigail, I find that I do my best work under the time pressure that procrastination provides. When I had months to work on a term paper I would fret and worry about it (and not do anything) until right before it was due (sometimes the DAY it was due) and then I would sit down and write a great paper. Had I fiddled with it for months it wouldn't have shone my true understanding of the material. So, procrastination brings out my true skills (says the girl who is reading this post INSTEAD of cleaning her house).

I had a "most awesome person ever" roommate in college. We never understood each other.

My dad calls me last minute Melissa because I procrastinate so much. There is ALWAYS something better to do like take a bath or nap or BOTH! He even got mad at me when my kid was born 5 days late.

I've shamelessly procrastinated and now I have court this morning -- at which a motion, declaration AND memorandum are due and they are not yet drafted. Still... I'm here, aren't I? WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!?!?!

People who don't procrastinate make me nervous. Instead of being inspired by their work ethic they usually make me want to drink twice as much while they work....and then I am motivated to still do the job better the night before. Reason number 723 why I am an asshole...

This post was so good and convincing that I waited until today to say so.

Hello, Collective.

I (heart) Shari.

I've got a 2-3 week trial starting on Monday. Pretty soon I should probably update my legal research, read the depositions and decide if I need to file any motions in limine that're due Friday. Oh, and I might work up a witness list and some jury instructions.

Oh. Sorry! Well, you could just pretend that we're talking about issues that face plumbers in their work. I'm sure there are many procrastination opportunities in that occupation too.

I doubt I'll ever get one though.
