I'm lazy
I am very lazy. It's purely because I always think I can be doing something better with my time, but then I just end up pissing around.

For example, when I'm at work, I can make an hour's job take all day. I look at b3ta for new posts, check bbc for the latest news. Perhaps venture to a games site for a few minutes. Look at the clock and it's late afternoon and I haven't started. Oh dear. It's great having unfiltered web access :)

Another example of my idiotic timewasting is when it came to my good self choosing a University to waste 4 years of my young life. When it came to the time for us to start going to open days, I decided my time would be best spent playing Championship Manager and learning Japanese. Open days came and went, and on the last weekend before the UCAS form had to be filled in, I decided to travel to two of my preferred Unis......
I ended up watching Saturday Kitchen, Football Focus, then playing with the cat for an hour and cooking a cake.
When it came down to filling in the form, I picked a course that sounded interesting, and I picked Uni's that looked alright from their websites. So in essence, I made a decision that would affect the next 4 years of my life in 10 minutes. Was a decent decision as it turns out, but anyway.

I also started writing a novel. I've written 40,000 words so far. I started writing it 5 years ago. The 'latest' version is stuck on the hard-drive of my broken old computer, so I need to get someone to transfer it for me. However, I keep putting it off. I'm putting something off, which if I stopped putting it off, would help me to carry on with something that I keep putting off, which I will probably keep putting off anyway. Hope that makes sense.

And who do I blame for my procrastination and inability to finish anything?

I place the blame squarely on YOU. All of you people who make pictures and animations that make me laugh, or just jealous at how good you are. All of you who post entertaining links. All of you who talk drivel on /talk that I like to read (and participate in now and again). Mostly, all of you who contribute to the QOTW, which has been the main source of my enjoyment for the past few years; both writing entries for it, and reading your (sometimes) great entries.

Thanks for making life a little less boring.
