Observations of Heidi by Heidi:
-That taillight is exactly as long as my midsection. I goes from my pit to my waist. I am the size of a GMC truck taillight. Good thing or bad thing????
-I was wearing a little bit of make up that day. I hate my reflection in the mirror at the hairdresser's without it. Grey. Blah.
-I love my neighbours but I wish I wasn't so close to their house when I'm standing where I park my truck.
-Them fancy taillights are almost hip, eh? Like in a subwoofer in the back seat, neon lights under the doors kind of way? Oh wait. No. Because that crap is not hip.
-The only time my hair is straight is after I come home from the hairdresser's. This is not an accurate representation of the real me. I feel like a fraud.
-That's my favourite belt.
-Every photo of me looks like a different person. My face is kind of assymetrical (like the rest of my body), making every slightly different angle or slant of light make me look like a different person. I have been told that I look like numerous famous actresses, all of whom are taller and wealthier than me. (Any guesses?)
Now I'm going to tell you THE TRUTH ABOUT PROCRASTINATION.
Unit 6 of my correspondence course is Marketing. I have handed in my bogus business plan. It's totally imaginary. I hated doing it. But it's in. I can do Marketing. This is where it gets easier for me. I'm awful with numbers but I can do words and pictures and colours. But in the meantime, I have discovered a really useful and quite wonderful thing...
When you're avoiding something you don't want to do, or don't understand how to do, instead of poking it with a stick, get up and do something else.
I can't believe how sparkly clean the bedroom floor is now.

So many truths lately! LIE TO ME HEIDI! LIE TO ME!
I'm all for getting up and doing something else! That's kinda been my moto. For 37 years.
Tim- you remind me of a Pinocchio joke.
Biddie- distraction. It works in so many different situations!
So, while I am reading your post I am eating an apple. I am eating an apple because I had it in my bag and I am trying like hell to NOT go downstairs (35 floors) to the gift shop and buy some chocolate.
I could be driving my cute little car with the top down, but it is still raining. Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny...maybe I'll have free time then too!
Keith Urban is on the radio. Hm.
The windows in my hotel room are floor to ceiling and kind of round.
There was going to be a point to this comment, but I don't remember so I am telling you all this triviality instead. Oh WAIT, it's Tuesday!! I need to go and write Trivial Tuesday in my spare time!
:-D
Ha! Cindy is procrastinating!
Got something else you can do while procrastinating -- tonight is Dancing with the Stars! AND the drama of Sarah leaving... you CANNOT miss it! :)
Famous actress you resemble: Kind of a cross between Angelina Jolie and Julie Roberts (pre-Pretty Woman) with just a dash of Whitney Houston thrown in!
:)
Jas...
askinstoo is an ass hat, for sure...I, too, am procrastinating... my bookkeeping. I hate it. I can do it, but the mess I am cleaning up just irks me so I just keep finding things to do elsewhere... and the sun is out to distract me as well. Anytime the sun is out now, could be the last for a long while...it is the rainy season...actually, if it did start raining, I could probably work cuz I would have to distract myself from the rain!!!
Oh look everybody, it's Askinstoo, he's back, and he's still an ass-hat! Didn't find what he's looking for. Ass-hat!
Yes, I've been told it's Julia Roberts and Red's Pre-Pretty Woman guess is accurate because she still had all her eyebrows back then.
I can only guess the Whitney thing is from the slightly confused look in the eyes...
As for procrastinating, today's Hick Chic Blog Comment Award goes to KC, because LALALALALA she is not even acknowledging the procrastination! It doens't even exist in her world!
I'm reallly glad to know that I'm not the only lazy/ professional avoider. You blog buddies always make me feel better about myself.
No wait, the slightly crazy look is definitely the Angelina resemblance.
yep.
Oh hey, just to push the procratinator thing beyond the beyond?????? I locked myself(and Emma) our of the house today, until Michael was home from work....ha ha. I win!!!!!!
I have heard that joke, youre nasty!
That pose reminds me of Holly Hunter for some reason, but I doubt you're taller than her. She's 5'2".
I once saw a cartoon of a woman sitting at a table, with papers strewn all over, and the caption read: "How can I sit here doing my taxes when I know darn well my freezer needs defrosting?"
She was drawn to look like Holly Hunter.
Who's 5'2"
Did you know that the cartoonist Charles Addams hated captions? He always felt that if his cartoon needed a caption, however clever, it was somehow a failure.
Charles Addams was not a tall man. Nor did he like trucks. He didn't dislike them, but being a New Yorker who lived in the early-to-mid twentieth century, he really didn't get to enjoy the full impact of the city-truck subculture.
Charles Addams did not look at all like Holly Hunter. Except for his height. He was 5'2".

CORRECTION: 1st graf, 1st sentence, should read:
'...but I doubt she's taller than you.
I apologize for the mischaracterization.
Yeharr
JJ- wow, thanks! I've never gotten that one before and I feel so...glamorous all of a sudden!
Pirate- I have never gotten Holly Hunter before either but I like that! She's very cool.
Charles Addams may have been a city boy but he created Morticia and my dark side loves him for that.
However...They are/were both taller than me!!!!!
