Summer Slacking

Here I sit typing out a new post, procrastinating and not working on my essay that is due this next week.  Sure I love to write, but I really don’t find essays to be much fun.  The thing is, all I have to do is get through two more classes this week and I’m done for the summer.  So if my mind would get going on what I need to write rather than what I want to write, I would be in a much better place right now.  But what I would rather be doing today is walking through the wonderful city of Chicago taking in this beautiful day, but instead I am sitting at my desk hoping my essay will write itself as I daydream looking out the window.

One thing I am excited about for my summer break is the move of our household.  Me and the misses are finally moving from our little dump of an apartment and getting a bigger that will be more comfortable when we have overnight guests.  Plus the neighborhood is much more enjoyable than the one we were in now.  The thing I’m worried about though is the fact my wife wants to paint the new place and I hate to paint.  Hopefully she’ll find a friend to help her instead of me.

The light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter.  That’s right, I can see the last semester and I am getting excited.  After my short summer break I’ll have two more semesters before the day I have been waiting for comes along.  By this time next year I will finally be a college grad holding a piece of paper proving it.  I am really looking forward to that day.

I guess if I want to pass this summer course so I don’t have to retake it and extend my college career I should get working on my essay.  I hope to get my booty in gear and post on this little blog of mine more often, but with the weather great outside and work to be done for my class, I just haven’t felt the urge to share with you all.  To this I say sorry, but I plan on letting you know how our move goes and what lies ahead as my college career winds down this year.

Until the next post, keep your eyes on the words and your mind free of clutter.
