I don't just have it, I invented it.

I have a pile of filing on my desk, I'm past the due date for tax return lodgement, the freezer needs defrosting. I'm bothered about all of these, and I'm playing Angry Birds because nobody's moving on RHP.

Can't, your challenge is restricted to higher ratings. But at least I tried. 🙁

You need Motivatrix pills. PM me for the formula. Licensing available for $24.99. This is a bargain introductory price.

Seriously, I'm actually qualified to develop said formula.

My goodness, I'd drive you to drink if I offered you a game..you've moved more frequently, in the four days of this month, than I 'achieved' in the last three MONTHS !
And to think of all the grief I get, 'ohh, you're playing chess AGAIN !'....proof, surely, that I'm not here nearly as often as 'feared' ? NO, unfortunately it's not, I'm one of those that complain at the lack of space in 'message opponent'..but if there was LESS space then I'd clearly stand a chance of making maybe, hmmmm, maybe a couple more moves a day lol.

I couldn't offer you a game unless you stood me at least two rooks and a queen. 🙁 But I'm another message-box filler, so if you promise not to actually play chess I'll send over a challenge. Been procrastinating my gym session for two hours already.

OK, fly one over if you're fine with 'sometimes' delayed moves lol...
Edit: There'll be no flag time nonsense either, I ran out of mine months and months ago 😀

I'm with you on this. I have been the world's worst (ok maybe 2nd worst compared to you) my entire life. As a student, I always waited until the last night to crack open the reading material and type up a huge paper. I wait until the last second to do anything. As long as it's an option to wait.

What I still can't figure out about me is, when I'm on the clock at work, I am the complete opposite. I do everything in my power to stay ahead and keep my plate empty. I go looking for work to do, like a heat-seeking missile. Maybe it's some moral sense of obligation--maybe my guilty conscience overrides my procrastination and laziness.

I had something to say, but it's taken me so long to get around to typing it that I've forgotten what it was. 🙁

I take it you are a cat lover. I saw this on the news last night and it's one of the cutest things I've ever seen.

They're both cute. They'd only appeal to females though, men look for entirely different things in video clips ... 🙂

Procrastination is the main barrier to greatness for most of us.

The truly great in ANY field do not procrastinate. Think on that.
