Default The Rolycom™ Procrastination Elimination Thread

I, like many other posters on BE, sometimes find myself procrastinating by posting on BE instead of doing the work stuff I need to get done.

So to deal with this problem, instead of actually getting my head down and getting on with things, I've decided to open a thread to procrastinate by posting about procrastination.

And, no, I see no irony in that at all.

Must write. But not here. On word processor. Keep writing here instead, though. Damn.

There used to be a "Procrastinators Club" here. I thought I would join but I kept procrastinating. Eventually, it disappeared, which makes very good sense if you think about it.

You need one of those Speech to Text software packages. Makes writing easier and you just dictate what you need to write. You can even play on here at the same time lol.

Both husband and I are huge procrastinators. We need to send in our removal-of-conditions petition. He doesn't seem to be bothered that his green card expires in April!

I'm fretting because I don't know how much proof is enough. We visited another Dutch-American couple this past weekend and despite them sending in heaps of stuff, they STILL got asked for affidavit letters.

Justify your reason that you are on here in case you need PowerPoint assistance. By the way, what version of Office are you using?

Stop fretting.

If they want more stuff, they'll ask for it.

Don't let the b@st@rds make you sweat...
