tax time

Lately I've been finding all sorts ways to avoid beginning work on my income taxes -

like taking pictures of my ceiling
(although I do kind of like this one)

Today I even resorted to dusting and vacuuming, proving there are no lengths to which I will not go to avoid the inevitable.

Beautiful swirly thing.. is it glass? I know what you mean about avoidance! That's why I'm here reading blogs!!! lol
Let's go have a BLT and drive around and find weird town names!!

The swirly thing is plastic and it is supposed to live in the yard, but it's so windy sometimes, I fear it will fly away and impale someone!
When it does swirl, it has rainbow colors in it - very psychedelic!
I'd love to have a BLT and take a road trip! Oh, that sounds like so much fun!
I wish I could. I wish I could. Maybe if we click our heels together.....
Or we could buy a bottle of chardonnay and just kick back and watch the swirly thing!!

ooooh... chardonnay sounds good too!
I'm clicking my heels!!

I am the same way! My apartment is never so clean as the times just before I am forced to crack down on a project...

beautiful glass ornament, by the way :)

haha! Reminds me of Black Books, if you're familiar, where Bernard spends the whole epsiode avoiding his tax return, even resorting to being beaten up by skinheads! I hope you don't get that desperate. ;)

I'm avoiding going to bed...sometimes the web is just too interesting for my own good.

Please do not talk about taxes!!!
This is an ugly word in Belgium and I still am recovering of my previous bill and have to sort out all of my spendings of last year and it is so much work! I HATE IT!!!!
And then you have to pay in the end and that is the worst part :(
Sorry Emma but here you touched a sensitive point. ;)Just kidding but it is true

I hold firm in my belief that the best ideas come in times of procrastination! :) That picture is very cool.

The boyfriend always knows that I have work to be doing if he comes home and I'm oh I don't know, cleaning the baseboards around the house... brushing the dog's teeth... organizing my books on my bookshelf by color. Very important things.
