I Am So Lazy


I am physically unable to read research. I will spend hours in bed reading fun books. But research? I immediately fall asleep. I am here at work on a super slow day due to the public holiday that only a handful of companies (including mine) choose to ignore in order to add it onto a super duper long Easter weekend. But that means a lot of people aren't here. I should be able to just research. I have had only two people ask me to do things for them and each only required a 2 minute phone call. So how many articles have I managed to read today? Um, one. And I skipped most of it because it was like, "Here's the scientific data and reasoning behind our data collection..." And frankly? I just don't care. You go, scientists, go. I don't know your different stats methods. I probably should, but that's why I barely scraped by with a B- in Stats. Now we know why. You just tell me what you found out.

So I kinda skimmed one article. And then I spent twenty minutes trying to find a good picture of my interpretation of lazy. This one was entitled "sad girl". But you know what? I don't think people on vacation are lazy. I don't think napping on the couch is lazy. I think that is recreation. So there ya go. That was my half-attempt at soapboxing it today. See how lazy I am?

I'm off to really, really try to read this time. No, for real.


UPDATE: I read a whole other article. No skimming. Well, not a lot of skimming. I do have to centre on only my topic area. Also, I just got excited because I remembered that regular access TV is playing the uneditted version of Fight Club tonight. New Zealand is cool. This is the same station that played Gigli last night. I watched two minutes of it before I wanted to gouge my own eyes out.
