Some people will do anything to avoid working, I'm one of them. Last week I started writing a syllabus for the new class I will be teaching next semester. Unfortunately I didn't get much further than "started" before I ended up with a huge block. So... the rest of this week I've spent procrastinating and I'm getting very good at it. So far in my avoidance of writing I've learned to take the bus to the UW campus and back from Redmond, made 13 jars of blackberry jam, 1 blackberry pie, and one pan of blackberry cobbler, nearly cleaned out my garage, attended a faculty meeting where I did nothing but smile and nod, and to top it all off threw a rather elaborate impromptu dinner party for 8 last night.
Unfortunately since today is Friday I need to email a draft of my syllabus to the powers that be, I must stop with the procrastination. Oh wait, does this count?

I think you're underestimating your procrastination skills...remember, we also spent almost an entire day baking this week? So add two jello omlet pies to the list!
You're right, my bad. I still have six tomatos, any ideas on what to do with them?
