Accomplishment v. Procrastination

Dateline: July 22, 2009 :
I come to the realization that I've been putting things off for too long and need to start getting the wheels in motion.
Why do people put things off until the end is near?
I have always worked better with my back up against a deadline. I've always been that way.
Yet, with high blood pressure and diabetes, I think I may be realizing that self inflicted pressure may be doing me more harm than good.

~Then it dawns on me that people are waiting for me to produce.~

I am inundated with distractions: Twitter, Facebook, VH 1, CSI Miami, my sons... (ok, my sons are not a distraction, but they sure know how to get in the way)

Today, I decided that it was time to produce some mock up pages for the Foghorn.
I hope to finish them by tomorrow, Friday the latest.

I must admit, seeing our web editor work inspired me to light a match to my ass.
I must also admit that watching a few people's lack of enthusiam for the projects I have given has made me realize that it may take more of an effort on my behalf to make things happen in order to make up for the lack of effort that a few others have shown. (Maybe I'm just paranoid)

There are those who have shown that our paper is a high priority. The editors are really dedicated to putting things together.

I usually don't name drop, but Jeff, Natalia, Stephen, Steph, Andrea and Steven look to be ready to kick ass. WE WILL SWEEP!!!

~anyway, I will be updating my blogs more often. I also have a blog titled "Responding to prompts and everyday life situations"...I'll have to link it up to this one. That's more about me focusing on writing.
