Dawn's Thursday Thirteen, edition 8: July 20, 2006

Thirteen Reasons Why I Am So Late Posting My TT This Week



1. i was way too busy emailing with my friends today. what can i say? they entertain me & prevent me from thinking of clever TT topics!

2. there is a project at work that WILL NOT be completed. i kid you not. every time i think this thing is done, it crops up again. and since they don't pay me to blog...well...*shrug*

3. the Red Sox had a day game today & when the Sox play, i must pay close attention to what is happening. there is much commentary to be shared. and i was supposed to also be working remember.

4. i really couldn't think of anything i felt was worthy of being my TT!

5. i just cannot be an over achiever like someone i know who has these things prepared days in advance

6. i had the attention span of a gnat today when it came to concentrating on *anything*. i think maybe that never-ending project has tapped out my ability to stay focused.

7. my desk is in a very central location at work. everything happens around me. and i feel the need to be nosy & take it all in.

8. i work with people who leave me way too many opportunities to poke fun or make wisecracks or otherwise tease, torture & taunt. it kept distracting me from the TT task at hand.

9. have i mentioned being easily distracted today? (except from the Red Sox game)

10. ice cream

11. when i came home from work, i ate dinner right away.

12. then i took a nap.

13. i could have made this TT yet another baseball *ahem* Red Sox related entry which would have come very easily for me but i was afraid i would start a revolt. so instead, you get this very lame list of excuses why i am late & on top of it, there will still be a baseball *ahem* Red Sox related blog entry to follow.
