Procrastination and "snooze control"

Nothing like waiting until the absolute last day to get your vehicle tabs.

The sad thing is that I had my safety and emmissions test a week before February ended so I could be sure to get my tabs with plenty of time to spare.

Maybe that was my problem......I knew I had plenty of time and promptly forgot that I needed to do it until the end of last week. Unfortunately the DMV is no longer open on Fridays. I'd planned to be there yesterday bright-eyed and bushy-tailed at 7 in the morning but I elected instead to hit snooze a couple times and didn't want to be late for work.

Anyway, this morning I ran down to my local Jiffy Lube, showed them my test results and then shelled out an extra ten bucks for them to issue me my tabs. I figure I deserve it for putting it off for so long. Sure I could have driven to the DMV over in Provo and been at their doors at 7, but, as I am sure you guessed....the snooze button won again.

I need to keep my alarm across the room from my bed...out of easy reach.

Class

Hey everyone....wish me luck.

This month I am learning Dreamweaver (website coding). Tonight is my first class and boy is it giving me a headache trying to read the instructor's screen from the back of the class. Its hooked up to a tv monitor on the wall but the print is so small that I am definately going to have to sit at the front of the class for the rest of the month!

Tomorrow I start product/packaging design. I admit I am really excited for that one. I got my textbook for it tonight and couldn't resist taking a sneak peek!

GIVE-A-WAY!!!!!



whiletheyplay is having a fantastic give-away for the crafter/crocheter/knitters amongst us. Sadly she just discovered that she is allergic to acrylic yarn and so all if it must go....and what a way to let it go.....

Follow this link and post a comment to be eligible for her drawing. All you have to do is tell her in the post what you plan to do with all of the lovely yarns if you win. If you post her giveaway on your blog, insert a link to it in your post and you will be given an extra 2 entries into the drawing!

What will I do with it? Honestly....I plan to give it to Miya and Lucie to play with. Odds are pretty long that I will win, but I figure it is worth the effort.
