Procrastination
Outlook is a wonderful tool, but not when it keeps reminding you that it is now 96 weeks since you were supposed to finish a report you haven't even started yet.
Just how lazy are you? How long will you put off the essential or the inevitable? What do you fill the time with?
(We're too lazy to write something funny here. You do it.)

Major procrastinator here
Anything I find slightly undesirable, boring or plain effortful, I always try to put off as much as possible. It's really an annoying character flaw.
Examples:
- Work. I generally piddle around with simple stuff, leaving the major bits until they really need to be done.
- Money. I try not to go the the bank until my wallet's empty and people are tearing down my door (not quite literally, yet) to get what I owe them.
- Cleaning. Stacks of plates and piles of dust can adorn my living quarters for weeks on end.
On all these things, I actively pursue any other means of distracting myself, usually in the form of games or other computer related activities.
I sometimes wish I could kick myself up the arse and get motivated to really achieve something, but then I remember I haven't explored somewhere in Oblivion yet...
As a last note, I still haven't started any real work on my final project for my college Bachelor degree. I took my last class in spring of 2006. Sigh.
