It's About Time

Well, one thing that South Africa has not helped me with is punctuality. I still find that I run behind on most projects. Examples:

Mailing out Christmas CDs/cards
Final script for Christmas performance
Christmas presents
White elephant gift

The things that are part of this Saturday I will have done on time. But that is because they have a hard deadline. The Christmas CDs/cards have a real deadline of Christmas Day... though ideally sooner. That is a soft deadline. I also happen to be quite good at rationalization, so I'll say that it isn't fair for my friends to get the Christmas CD before my family does. There, that almost sounds legitimate.
