Work, yes. Procrastination, yes. Work done without procrastination, rarely. Does that help?

And scince college doesn't start up again until Thursday, I have a lot of free time.

Dang...you must be either independently wealthy...or living with your folks!
LOL!
I think the idea is to find a job that you like.
And all jobs aren't eight hours a day, five days a week. And they all don't last 30 years.

Very true, Tallgrrl. I've jumped from job to job over the years. Mostly clerical work for various places, both profit and not-for-profit. I must say the most interesting place I've worked, though, is my job that just ended before I started my student teaching. I worked in the Health Services dept. of a juvenile prison for three years.

I'm a student. I can't believe how much free time I have. I'm taking nineteen hours, maybe twenty.

So that's bound to change.

Yes, 3 teenagers, although only 2 remain at home (both boys ). The youngest (mine) is going to be 15 next month. As I'm 35, that would make me...that's right! A very stupid 19 year old! LOL.

My job really requires very little in the way of my attention. I am a marketing director and have a staff that takes care of 90% of the busy work. I get to go to the stuffy meetings w/ the old guys for an hour every morning, then it is off to my office to shuffle paperwork and sign things. I do have to go over proposals and things of that nature, but I have it down to a science, so I have quite a bit of time for net surfing.

Well, the second one...but it's just community college, so not like dorms are an option. If they were, I'd be there, beleive you me.

Not sure I can find a job I'd like with my qualifications (or lack thereof). I think it'd be cool to be a lawyer, or the CEO of some business, or a teacher - but think you need more than a diploma for them kinda jobs.
