Make the snow come back...



It is not supposed to be 60 degrees at the end of December. While I do not particularly like the cold, get it RIGHT, Mother Nature. There is supposed to be snow on the ground, not warm puddles.

Procrastination Nation

Happy Boxing Day, Everyone!

I haven't posted in over a month, so I figure that I ought to post before the end of the year, right?

...plus I can't get anything done. Like I physically cannot make myself do any work.

I have made at least eight billion pies since I got home, so that's productive. Of course, I can't eat eight billion pies, so now my fridge is filled with pumpkin and apple pies that are rapidly getting soggy and I don't think I can stomach any more pie.

I'm branching out tonight by making Crumb Berry Pie. You can only make so many pumpkin, apple, and banoffee pies until they get old. Then I was in the shower and looked down, and there was a recipe on my bottle of shower gel! Gotta love Philosophy 3-in-1 Shower Gels.

This is all fine and dandy, but you know what it's not? It's not writing my thesis. It's been over a week since I've written a word. Anyone want to write for me?

So I'm moping around the house, testing pie recipes and watching the first four seasons of Friends, which I got for Christmas. I need to write Chapter 2, get a haircut, apply to Oxford, and STOP MAKING PIES.

Otherwise pretty soon I will start looking like this:

In related news, anyone around the Lynn area want a pie?

Signing off for now, to try to do work. Or make another pie. Last one, I swear.
