U sound like my boyfriend oops ex bf even, did my bloody head in. Everything that needed doin had to be done now. Like on a sat nite if ya wanted to get into bed or onto the sofa for a bit he would decide the feckin front door needed painting and he would have to go start it then, or that shelf he wanted put up in the bathroom would need done there and then. Drove me crazy, glad im starting to think of all the things that pissed me off.  I need someone that when i say ah sure we do it next week they say yeh or even the week after will do no rush  ;D

Hmm well not totally lazy. I like one with  a bit of ambition and a bit of drive surely but not to the extent that things have to be done there and then at all times. Drives me mad, me dads like that too. In fact all men i know are. Why cant they piss off and chill out a bit. As long as things get done eventually who cares  :-\

Ziggy says relax. TG, if you asked me to do something for you, I'd eventually get around to it. Not before a quick cuddle.

You sure your ex wasn't actually texting Mark?  Don't think there is many men who on odd occasion have a chance to get some action decide they have to paint the door.  Think that should have been your cue to leave through the front door.

'Apply a theoretical concept to an industry in Switzerland which takes into account market entry and distribution strategies, international pricing issues, communication issues and product decisions'

I have just succumb to crippling procrastination. The above has to be in by 12 noon tomorrow and I havent started it yet. I think I may have to use one of 'my deadline extension pleas' which have worked so well in the past.

Ive used the funeral one already this year and I think I may have to use the 'I lost my wallet on Saturday night and my memory stick with all my work on it was in it and Ill have to start from scratch again so I'll need more time' excuse.

I procrastinated about fixing the brakes on my car, and I just got raped for 500$ for new brakes and rotors.

Decided against going down the excuse route. Just 100 words left to do, then a scoot up to the Poly Technical and Ill get this baby in before noon and im done and dusted.   :P

I went out with a girl at college that when she had an assignment that was late told the male lecturers she had 'woman's problems'.  The poor guys just freaked out, no more questions asked and just told her to get it in as soon as she could.  Bad Karma but good thinking.
