oh gosh everything. I was born six weeks late and I've been delaying things ever since. In college I would write my papers the day they were due.
But phone calls are killing me now. I hate making phone calls, unfortunately phone calls are 90% of my business. sigh.

I'm sure this is odd, but I procrastinate doing things that I like! I always want to save it. For example, I put off watching the series finale of Downton Abbey because I knew once I watched it, it was done!
I do procrastinate doing unpleasant things as well, phone calls, dusting etc..

Showering. I ought to shower and get dressed before I do anything else really. But I'll just have breakfast first, oh and I ought to update my shifts on the computer, and that laundry (which has been sitting in the basket since yesterday) needs folding and putting away, and the dishwasher should be emptied really, and I'll just have another cup of tea first, and answer those e-mails, and the bird feeder is empty - I must refill it but that's a messy job which I would be silly doing before I shower, right? And what other messy stuff can I do while I'm already messy?
And that, my friends, is why on my days off, the neighbours may have seen me outside weeding the garden in my pyjamas...

Going to bed.
I'm not a procrastinator in the day to day things much at all. I HATE knowing something needs to get done and wasting mental energy thinking about it, so I just do it immediately. But I could procrastinate for HOURS before going to bed. Always another little thing to do, or video to watch, or webpage to read...

OH!!!
Also, putting gas in my car. I'm terrible. I almost always let the gas light come on. Dad always taught me to fill up at no less than 1/8 tank, preferably 1/4. Sorry, Dad. I suck!

Folding the last load in the dryer...If I have 3 or 4 loads to do, I will get the first ones washed, dried, folded and put away...but that last one will sit in the dryer for days getting fluffed multiple times before I finally cave in and just fold the damn things.

Where do I start?
I procrastinate getting out of bed. Gotta get those few extra minutes Shaving my legs Washing my hair - I hate having to blow dry it. Folding laundry (I can get it washed and dried and there it stops) Organizing anything Tossing mail - it sits on my table Cleaning out the fridge. Putting stuff away Going to the store, especially walmart. I have pictures there on one hour for the past week. Filling my gas tank Cleaning the bunny cage (can it wait another day?) Hanging up clothes. I did it during my closet organization in January and not since. And drum roll - losing weight. I gave it a real shot for about 8 months and lost 20 lbs and then it all went to hell.
I look like the laziest person in the world with this list, but I console myself that bills are paid, we have food to eat and clean clothes, and lots of completed scrapbooks!!

Going to bed - I do not like to go to bed I wish I could stay awake 20 hours a day - way too much to do and too much to procrastinate on. I am such a last minute Lilly and always have been. I really procrastinate when I don't know how to do something. I have no problem once I jump in and start doing it but it's the start of it that I don't like.
I always plan to go to bed by 10:00 but never make it until midnight -
