They call me smart, but really, I’m just a little brilliant
Some people waste time, and other spend time wondering where they wasted it.
In a series of universally-correct, astoundingly astute observations of myself in my natural habitat, I have formally come to the conclusion that I would get so much more done if I did not have:
- A website to write in.
- A tumblr to do everything in.
- A twitter account to update.
- A facebook account to lurk in.
- A flickr account to post in.
So really, it’s not at all my fault that I’m an easily-distracted procrastinator. It’s the internet’s fault.
That feels so much better.
Wait, I could have told you that! :P It’s what I do as well…darnnit.
September 10th, 2008 at 3:10 pmI spend waaaay too much time on Facebook checking friends’ pages and their friends’ pages. I don’t even know their friends!
September 10th, 2008 at 3:13 pmI’m glad I’m not the only lurker out there, it seems I spend so much time on MySpace lurkin’ on everyone’s profile, even people I don’t know, ha.
September 14th, 2008 at 12:01 amSo yeah, I’m going to blame the internet too!
Facebook is evil, but GMail distracts me the most..
September 14th, 2008 at 5:26 amOh how very true! I lurk Tumblr and Facebook way too much.
September 14th, 2008 at 2:55 pmI only have one of those things and I still waste ridiculous amounts of time each day. What’s my excuse?
September 15th, 2008 at 2:41 pmOh my god, I totally agree! That’s my problem too. Haha.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:31 pmSO true. Chanel, you’re brilliant.
My computer’s power adapter died (for the fourth time) and until I get a new one the only computer access I have is at uni. So yesterday when I was home I was astonished at how much work I got done. I was like “wow… I am so productive, what’s different today from other days? Oh yeah, I don’t have a computer!”
It’s all those things you mentioned plus a couple more that eat up all my time. I’m almost better off without a computer!
September 17th, 2008 at 9:56 amI know what you mean! During exam week last year, I had to turn off all my MSN and Facebook alerts. I felt like I was grounding myself.
