Procrastination and a New Show


Firstly, I'd like to point out that I started thinking about this post during bio, when I most decidedly should have been paying attention to Sacco. I think that this is one of those preverbal tendencies that humans picked up at some time or another...That age old question: to do or to avoid doing? I myself have manage to acquire a whole arsenal of sites to keep me pre
occupied. It's amazing what you can spend hours not doing!
And while procrastination is admittedly not classy, here are some of the sites I use to keep me entertained:

One sentence to sum a story of some sort. Some of these are actually pretty touching and others are just hilarious:


Some of these are just so sad, it makes me happy to be me!:

This guy is an asshole...and yet I read about his life anyway:

I love this game so much! I don't understand how or when I became addicted, but it has gotten to the point where I can actually visualize tetriminos when I am not playing:


Actually, fairly hilarious I haven't been keeping up with them like I should:

I actually pay attention in biology some days; that's how I found this one:


This site has contributed to at least 80% of my procrastinating. Every page has a link to another page which has a link to another page etc. So when I start out on a page reading about the Cold War or doing a little fact finding on moral relativism...where do I find myself instead? Reading about Britney Spears or looking at summaries for an episode of Buffy:

Secondly, I've found a new show! Those of you who know me (hey ceelyn!) already know that I watch an obscene amount of television (another post perhaps) but I've just found a new show to add to my list: DOLLHOUSE. 
 It's so amazing because it has: 

1. Eliza Dushku

2. Memory erasing

3. British people

4. evolutionary human thought segments!!

Did I mention Joss Whedon created it, as in Buffy the Vampire Slayer guy? Yeah, yet another reason to love it! Except we all know he peaked with Buffy...but still, this show is proving to be fairly entertaining. (although why he felt the need to recycle the 'watcher'  concept I have no idea) You can check it out by going here, but of course if you needed a quick info sesh you can always just use Wikipedia.
