  • I've never caught up to tomorrow and have always done everything today or in the past.

    The better is to do it today....but I tend to put off until tomorrow.

    Depends on what it is, who it’s for, and how deep into the daiquiris I am.

    Daiquiris are more important :)

    Why concern yourself about either now when you can do that later?

    If it's for my job ... I prefer doing it today.
    Get enough work off my desk, and I can leave early Friday.  lol

    If it can be done tomorrow rather than today, it's not immediately essential.

    Since I may not be alive tomorrow, why waste my last day alive doing something non-essential.

    Even better: Why not just put off forever the things you don't want to do?

    I've always been on to 'put off til tomorrow'!!!!!!!    it just suits me..

    now some things I don't put off, but a lot of them, I do!

    hell, sometimes I even put stuff off until DAY AFTER TOMORROW..... WHAT'S one more day in the grand scheme of things, right?

    LOL

    :-D

    I admire those who get stuff done 'right now'.......all the time!!  but it's just not the way I was made!!

    must've been out to lunch when when they passed out the 'get stuff done now' gene, huh?

    LOL again....

    so in my defense, weak as it may be!!!...I DO get stuff done right away, but not always...........

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
