The Lounge is the best place to procrastinate... or worst....
Edited on Wed Jun-14-06 11:56 AM by Wetzelbill
I guess that depends on if you want to procrastinate or not. I should be writing two essays for an anthology I was asked to contribute to. Then there is the story idea I had the other day.... I also need to make a few calls. And, do some reading.

But, I just keep seeing threads I want to check out and replies from my own OPs that I want to get to. :)

Curses!

1. I vote for worst.
There were times this past sememster I had to seek out the rare internet-free computer at school just so I'd know I could get my work done.

Right now I should be doing revisions on an essay, cleaning up around here, being more active in my job search, and my dog wants something but I don't know what.

2. I had a weird idea sort of like that Amy Hempel essay I sent you
"The Harvest."

It is too complex to get into it right now, but I'll send it to you, if and when I write it. This "internets" stuff sure is hurting my work ethic. :)

What kind of essay did you write? I'd be down with checking it out. I've been wanting to read more of your stuff anyway.

3. I'd love to read it.
My essay is on Naturalism and Modernism in the American Short Story. :P

I actually wrote it for a class in April, but I'm cleaning it up to put in a portfolio kinda thing. Potential employers are gonna want to see some of my writing samples. You're welcome to read it if you want.

Both of my July classes are Creative Writing classes, so I'll be able to share much more interesting stuff with you then.

4. yeah I'll check it out
you still have my email right? Just paste it in the body of the email, because I can't get some things to open.

Oh I would definitely like to read your more creative stuff when you start getting into that. I live for that sort of thing!

7. The best place
I'm still in my pj's and it's almost 2pm here. I mostly lurk these days. Wasting time lurking, how pathetic is that?

8. My dear Bill!
The Lounge is the BEST place for procrastinating!

Let me see: I should be

1. Ordering birthday things for my husband, next week

2. Ordering shampoo for me...I'm on my last bottle, dammit!

3. Pushing the laundry

4. Finishing up the weekly scan for viruses....

And like that!

Good to see you!
