“I have a tendency, when I’m working on one thing, to doodle around and work on other things, to avoid what I’m doing.”
– George Lucas
I just read this quote tonight in February’s issue of Vanity Fair (which I had to buy cos Shia Labeouf is on the cover and I have a little crush on him and he looks so damn cute on the cover with Harrison Ford! But that’s another blog post. Wait I already did that blog post!) and it really hit home. I do this all the time, though George is referring to, oh you know, working on a current movie and then deciding to fiddle with another Star Wars idea or something. Much more productive than, ahem, me.
This month has been a testament to that for sure. I had such grand plans to kick off 2008 with a bang. Work hard, write harder. Crack that whip girl, get it in gear and start working!
Instead, I’ve compiled a list of places I visit when I should be writing. It’s embarrassing what a slacker I’ve become. So here we go:
** Jigzone, the biggest time waster EVER! I have wasted quite a few evenings lately at this place. It’s addicting! I even got my husband into it. Sigh. This is the place I should cut off FIRST.
** TMZ, shameful that I go here but I do. Damn it, I want to know what’s going on with Britney. And the latest on She’s a Scientologist Femme-Bot Katie Holmes! I can’t help myself. There. I admitted it.
** Romance Divas, because as one of the lovely Divas put it, I work from home and this is my office where I go to catch up on the latest chit chat. Love this place! Proudly declare this addiction!
** Passionate Ink, Feisty sucked me back in! It’s rockin’ right now, if you aren’t a member yet, you should join.
** Myspace, cos I’m lame.
Please share your favorite places you go to, ahem, unwind, kill time, procrastinate from working on that latest story. Give me somewhere new to hang out!
