Day 60

Time for a blogging break.

I need it too. I'm a procrastinator. I need to work on this. There's no reason why I shouldn't already be done with my paper. My problem is when I'm on my computer I just want to play. I end up spending most of my time surfing the Internet.

If the Internet is down, I end up fiddling around with iTunes or iPhoto, everything but doing what I'm suppose to do which is write my paper!

I spend entirely too much time on the computer. I have a dual monitor computer at work so surfing the net when I get a chance and checking my email or doing other stuff is so much easier with two monitors. I still have a hard time navigating when I have more than two windows open on a Windows computer because I have to constantly minimize/maximize windows.

I still haven't decided on what I will get in August/September for a new computer. I definitely want another Mac but I don't know if I want an iMac or a Mac mini. I was thinking of getting a Mac mini and buying a 30 inch monitor from a third party like Dell. LOL. I don't see myself watching much television in the future because most shows I like to watch are on the Internet now. I don't like reality television though America's Next Top Model is my guilty pleasure, I can definitely live without it.

I will finally be able to get my taxes done in the next couple of weeks. I've been putting it off because I want to start a Roth IRA and I want to contribute money for 2007. I hate paying taxes. I will probably owe taxes next year and I'm fine with that. I'm used to bending over and taking it up the pooper for Uncle Sam. If only I were irresponsible and had a couple of illegitimate children and no job. I wouldn't have to worry about taxes.

I have a habit of buying books and not reading them. I bought a book called the Art of Dramatic Writing by Lajos Egri four years ago and I have yet to read it. This book is recommended reading for that writing fellowship I mentioned a few days ago. I will try to read it whenever I have time. I will probably have to make time. I get every other Friday off so maybe I will devote 3 to 4 hours on those days to my creative writing.

I discovered a few of the people selected for that writing fellowship with ABC and Disney had locked hair. That is a good thing especially if I decide to lock my hair. I want to do it before I go on my trip to China that way I won't have to worry about my hair while I'm there.

I think I just wrote 350 words. Danggit! I've been blogging when I could have just finished that last little bit of my paper! Nope I just wrote over 500 words, so not only have I not finished my paper but I've gone over my post maximum word count of 500 words.
