Procrast... eh... I'll finish that later.

Here I sit at my job with nothing to do. I know you've heard the same thing from me before, and here is an inconvenient truth... every time I say it, I lie. There are actually several things I could be doing. I am in college, so there is that whole homework thing. I'm one of the few college students that doesn't complain about homework... mostly because I do it at such a well paced rate AKA not at all. Alright, alright, clearly I do homework otherwise I would have been kicked out days ago, maybe even years ago.

However, though I do do... i said doodoo... anyway... though I do complete homework, it is only after I've had my fair share of procrastination. It usually has a negative connotation, which is weird because it starts with "pro" not "con." Procrastination good... Concrastination bad. If this were to be a valid argument... which it isn't... then CONcentration would be a bad thing. Aside from looking at the biological make up of words... procrastination can be good in other ways.

First off... why do we procrastinate... either A. we avoid doing something we don't want to do or B. we want to do something we enjoy doing. Either way the result = happiness. Next... procrastination is not always a complete waste of time. We may not get that assignment done, but clearly I'll get that pop can tower constructed. Unfortunately for me... there are times when I will not get stuff done during this glorious procrastination period. I've allowed several minutes... even an hour or so to fly by having done nothing but stare at an empty jar of pickles (if it is empty... then it wouldn't be a jar of pickles...)... no joke. Pretty sure I have a disorder.

Let's be honest, procrastination is never the easy way out. Procrastination never gets rid of the work needed to be done and thus, one must do more work in a limited amount of time. Personally, I enjoy a challenge.

Well, now that I've used this post as a means of procrastination, I'd better move on and do nothing.

Real Life Television

     Real life television... what do I mean about this? Have you ever been in a real life situation and thought to yourself... wow, is this scripted? Or hey this guy is far to into his character to not be acting? I bring this up because as I worked my job at a convention center venue, I was teamed up with another employee. I figured I'd be nice, so I said hello to the guy...
     It certainly didn't take him long to respond... and three seconds later i knew about his three kids, his ex wife, his pet potbelly, and most importantly his other job. A Heavy Equipment Operator. Oh yeah, my night was set. He went through all the basics... why working on a combine is better than a tractor... how to change a... well I don't remember, but he told me. Needless to say, the guy went on and on about all these different machines, and all i did was smile and doze off.
     I have two regular places I eat at on campus. They both have their regular characters. One has Joe... he wipes down tables and mumbles beyond the recognition of words. Then there is Andy who takes a couple of minutes to respond to the last thing i said... plus he enjoys talking football... wether you want to or not. Both are great guys, they just seem like they belong in the sitcom setting. Now that you've finished this post... I'm sure you'll agree, I hope this guy isn't serious.
