Working in a very deadline-intesive profession, I can relate. Twisty, I’ll be eagerly awaiting your return to the blog, but no pressure, ‘k? ;-)

Procrastinators of the world unite!?! I wish there were some way to be paid to be a procrastinator. I’d be rich.

Well, shit. You really meant it. I thought you were just trying to get our sympathy and make us beg you to post.

Oh well, to pass the time and follow up one wookie’s comment, I’ll just quote Archie the cockroach (aka Don Marquis):

Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday.

Hi, like the blog. Some quick questions:

1) Is this the patriarchy’s fault, too?

2) Am I, as a man, by default a member of the patriarchy?

3) Is it therefore my fault?

4) And I’ve always wondered, if the answer to the two above questions is ‘yes’, is there a female group known as the ‘matriarchy’ by which you are, by default, a member?

5) That last quote there - “Oh, the humanity!” - shouldn’t that be more like, “Oh, the womanity!”. Or “Oh, the huwomanity!”

I’m being driven wild, wild I tell you, because I do not know the answers!

Um…do you know what “patriarchy” means? I don’t think it means what you think it means, TimT.

Actually, Tim, it’s “huwoperchildity.”
