Procrastination rocks....

Well today I have 2 hours to finish a piece of Uni work and send it to the rest of my group. This shouldn't be too hard but starting work on this 2 hours later than planned is not a good start. Then this afternoon I got to work on a presentation for Monday and go through it with the rest of my group after work today - woo hoo - can't think of anything I'd rather be doing on a friday evening....hmmm....maybe having a cheeky beer at the pub after work....or an early evening showing at the cinema....or a quick scant round Sainsburys to find something really nice for dinner....or catching up with the latest episode of Neighbours then Hollyoaks....

Cat skinning....

...I may not get famous just by blogging so maybe I will persue another avenue as well....yesterday Ant taught me another song on the guitar so if I carry on practising I could become famous for being the slowest guitar learner EVER!

BTW - according to the book Red Herrings and White Elephants, the phrase, more than one way to skin a cat actually refers to Catfish skinning, and the best way to do this (although of course there are others)is to drop it into boiling water the skin will peel off easily.

Morning!...

Well, so much for trying my hardest to avoid jet lag! Went to bed at 12am last night and woke up at 3am. Stayed in bed till 4.20, then thought sod this for a game of soldiers, I'll just get up. I unpacked my suitcase (something I usually leave about a week), ironed my skirt for work and had time to do my hair properly. Now I know how all the beautiful-martini-drinking-perfect-looking people at work manage to emerge from thier homes looking so pristine! They have permanent jet lag!
