The drama distraction-got that down. The unavailable lover-all the time I've spent wasting on men who weren't that into me, I might have written War & Peace or a trashy teen vampire series. The Internet is a major time sucker. Full of nice sites, like this one, and millions of distractions like gossip blogs, news sites, chat rooms and face book. Oh, and let's not forget food. Angry or upset? Stuff it down w/ a candy bar. Very good and very insightful posts. Thanks Beth Owl. The last 3 posts have pretty much covered most of my blocks. The drama distraction-got that down.

This past week's school assignments have been focused on time management and how to become more organized. We had to chart out an entire day of how we spent our time, and I will admit that I spent too much puttering around on the comp. I have two poems that are waiting to be finished, 3 magazines I haven't completed reading yet, and we still need to bring out all the Christmas decorations. But, hey....I just took another personality test on facebook, which led to taking more, so I'll get to everything else later... Yes, I suffer from an extreme case of procrastination and pleasure seeking. I need help. There is certainly something to say about timing!

Another hazard is the pothole of debt incurred with the slippery ease of on-line shopping - YIKES!. This leads to pressure to sell my art, maybe before it is perfected and increases the chance of rejection for my young artist ego. A cycle that may derail even the best of us.
