Procrastination is underrated

So I've got a list of about a million and one things I should be doing:

- Making a wedding invitation for my cousin and her husband because they don't have one yet
- Booking a restaurant for my "family" hen night meal
- Making some Heroes icons for my claim at [info]heroes_icons100
- Writing chapter 4 of Close To Me
- Drawing out a table plan for my Dad
- Housework (God forbid!)

And what do I do? I spend 3 hours reading fanfic and making myself a new header and matching default icon. It is very purdy tho! It's such a gorgeous, perfect Autumnal day outside. Cold, crisp, sunny, no wind. The leaves are golden and I feel good. I love this time of year, and apart from my ginormous gas bill, am looking forward to winter too. Plus I love these shots of Dean so much. He looks so cute.

Dean + Winter = a dead but happy Sylv

I do really need someone to give me a kick up the backside tho. Any takers?

only if you give me one back LOL because I've done exactly the same when I got a ton of important stuff to do ... not sit and look at dean and making a banner (which is gorgeeeeeeous btw good job ^_^)but reading fics and just generally bumming around on the net. I'm so for the high jump later but what a way to go. Hope you get your bits done *hugs*

Lovely new header and icon :) I love this time of year, too, though it's overcast today with rain coming this afternoon. But I love the fall and the winter :)

Now, step away from your fanfic, Sylv, and get to work! *claps authoritatively* Let's go!

aye aye ma'am! I've been very good since I wrote this post actually. Had a bath, wrote some of my fic, did the invitation AND the table plan *grins proudly*

[identity profile] joanna-484.livejournal.com 2007-10-11 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow! That's excellent! :) (And I must say, I produce results as a taskmaster :D)

awww hun I hope it all works out OK *hugs*

I really like your layout. Can I ask if you coded it yourself or found a customisable blank? because I'm looking for something similar I can add my own header to (I suck at stylesheets, but everyone makes entire layouts and my tweaks always go awry).

[identity profile] biffyhouse.livejournal.com 2007-10-11 05:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I wish I knew how to code it myself, I've done so much tweaking to it but wouldn't know how to do a whole one. There's still certain bits I want to change but I don't know how.

I got this layout from [livejournal.com profile] refuted and there's always some good ones at [livejournal.com profile] mintyapple and [livejournal.com profile] babydoll19

they're usually pretty good at putting extensive instructions in for tweaking stuff :)

Ooh, cheers for the links, I'll check those out:D

I'll kick ya 'up the backside' for more of Close to Me, if that's what you really want... ;) LOL!

Very pretty header!

[identity profile] biffyhouse.livejournal.com 2007-10-12 02:19 pm (UTC)(link)
well maybe I'd get more results if Jared slapped me on the arse *stares at your icon*

hehehe ;)

I'll give you a kick if you give me one LOL. I'm due out in less than 15 minutes and I'm still on here. Procrastinating will kill me one day!

[identity profile] biffyhouse.livejournal.com 2007-10-12 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
right. consider yourself kicked. although seeing the time you posted that comment I hope you're already out and that kick wasn't needed ;)

just read those ER spoilers btw. ACK! ICK! GAH!

that is all I can say :(

are you a procrastinator like me? haha

can you believe how much the weather has changed? it seems like it did it overnight. I woke up one more, getting ready for my day at work and I need a jacket! Just the day before I was burning up from the hotness.
