Slacker

I'm such the slacker. I didn't post yesterday and I didn't post anything earlier today.

I can sit here and make excuses all evening, but you know what it's like, having to post daily. It's like the high school journal my English teacher made us keep.

Journal:

Nothing happened yesterday and nothing happened today. I'm writing because I have to and not because I have some great insight into nothing. I didn't read the assignment and can't even comment on that. How many times can I write my name over and over again without my teacher noticing?

Blog version:

Nothing happened yesterday and nothing happened today. I'm writing because I slacked off yesterday and didn't post anything. I made a commitment and I didn't follow through. It's a slippery slope to spending my money on booze and women instead of paying the light bill or buying groceries.

OK, so maybe it's not as bleak, but I'm trying to keep my word. Too many times I tell my son, "Tomorrow," expecting him to forget. He's at an age where he remembers now. I told him I'd get him a Runescape book and I got it for him. That should hold him off for a while.

That way, when I ground him or say no to something, he'll know I mean it and know I won't forget.
