"we're a bunch of procrastinators, aren't we"
(tony, ad verbatim.) well, i guess we are, seeing as we're filling the bathtub with hot water in order to 1) avoid studying and 2) steam tony's shirt unwrinkled. doesn't steam making you wrinklier?? apparently not for dress shirts. they seem to have an essential ingredient that all of us are missing.

i make steam to procrastinate in many different ways. it's actually a very interesting thing to delve into, in order to procrastinate further.

a procrastinating analysis of steam as a procrastination practise

1) i make tea. i make A LOT of tea. that produces a lot of steam.
2) i wash dishes. that also produces a lot of steam.
3) i straighten my hair. guaranteed to be steamy.
4) i stay inside in the winter and don't study. steams up the windows (hyperventilating due to intensity of procrastination practise.)
5) oh oh oh! and i almost forgot. i take showers. LOTSA steam.
6) i clean. everything. with cleaners, which upon being sprayed, emit steam.
8) i breathe like an angry hippopotamus, because i don't want to do work. STEAM, baby.

anyone else possess unique procrastination practises involving steam (ahem - that i can post about? remember, the internet IS a public place.)

oh. i forgot about something.

9) i philosophize while procrastinating. makes a lot of steam come out of my ears.
