Procrastinating


From the Holiday Inn Express: Muskogee


Procrastinating: avoidance behavior, dawdling, dilly-dallying, loitering, delaying, frittering, puttering...that's what I'm doing. Should be grading my last 8 papers since I have to drive from Muskogee back to "the city" tomorrow afternoon in order to teach a class and I want to hand back the papers then. Ironic since the word procrastinating is derived from latin meaning "put off until tomorrow." But I can't put it off since I won't have time tomorrow. Apparently I'd rather spend time looking up "procrastinating" in the thesaurus, than actually doing what I should be doing. Funny how that works.
