Okay, so here is the deal. The humble creator of this blog while being incredibly gifted, handsome, creative and charismatic has one major character flaw. I am a procrastinator. I have known this since the age of about 7, however, I have been in denial and have never really admitted it. I was in a meeting at work a couple of weeks ago with the usual douchebags praying for the sweet release of death when this
"uber-douchebag" known as Craig introduced himself. Apparently no one had gotten the memo that we were having a guest speaker. I certainly would have come early knowing that I would be in the presence of a self-effacing, twichy, double-talking motivational fuckstick (yes, I said fuckstick)! Now I had already had four of my typical 7 cup of coffee intake (nothing helps with productivity like running laps around the cubicles and having to visit the pisser every 20 minutes) but I was like Ben Stien after taking a handful of vicotin and getting shot in the neck with a tranquilizer gun compared to this dude. It was as if someone had found a way to bottle sunshine...and then shoved a case up this guys ass. So now he has us doing these self-evaluations and I am of course copying the guy sitting next to me (just like high school) when I get to this part about procrastination. Then it hit me like like Chris Reeves colostomy bag (and yes, I know I am going to hell)...holy fuck! I am a procrastinator! I am the guy who tries to read 4 chapters in 15 minutes approximately 20 minutes before a test. I am the guy who takes Friday off to fuck around and tries to cram the work I should have done into Monday's schedule. I am the guy who says I will get back to you this afternoon and calls you 2 days later. I am the guy...well, you get the point. And finally so have I. I am really relieved because it has gotten progressively worse the last couple of years. The thing is, I have gotten away with it for too long. I have been a poseur. A slacker in overachiver's clothing. Anyway, the point of this entire insipid diatribe is to lend some insight into why I created this blog on January 5th, yet failed to post anything until February 5th. Man, there is so much more I have to tell you, but it will have to wait until later....
