Procrastination and romance...

Oh my GOSH! Why do I always leave everything for the last minute? Why can I not, in spite of my desperate desire to be more organized and use my time more wisely, ever just get my ass in gear so that I won't feel like I'm running two steps ahead of the AVALANCHE? Ugh.

Why am I surprised when my kids never have anything done the night before it is due? Obviously, that is the example they've lived with their whole lives. I really should have tried harder to correct that for them; this is a sucky way to live.

In other news, Shoe now "officially" has a girlfriend. Following in his father's romantic footsteps, I understand it went something like this...

At the dance on Friday night people kept asking them if they were "going out". When they finally had a moment alone, Shoe said, "So, do you want to be going out?" Lauren said, "Do you?" And then they just kind of agreed that they did. He said that he'd really wanted it to be better than that since I always tease the husband about his famous line that set an official beginning for our relationship, "So, are we together.. or what?"

Yea, we're all about the romance in this house. :)
