Mind Over Matter

Well today is Sunday. That’s quite unfortunate.

This blog was due last Sunday. So my hope is that I can write this today and then find some way to rewind seven days. I think my best bet will be to become BFF with Hermione Granger. . .

I made a connection today. I realized that ever since the due date for this blog assignment got pushed back to being due at midnight on Sunday rather than Saturday, I’ve done exponentially worse at getting it submitted on time. How does that make sense?! I guess I could say that I use Sunday as a day of rest and never do my homework that day. But I would just be lying to myself (and Brooke. Brooke is my one committed follower of my blog. Hi Brooke. How is your day going?).

So I guess what I’m trying to say is that I realized when I’m given more leniency, I use it up. Unfortunately, not in a good way. Having this assignment due one day later makes it that much easier for me to forget, somehow. (I really don’t know how, that makes no sense.)

I've contemplated many solutions, but most of them included sleeping and making cookies. Which neither one helps me accomplish my blog so I had to scratch them both. It seems the only reasonable solution is to trick my mind into thinking that this blog is still due on Saturday night. Mind over matter perhaps?? So what I am going to do from here on out is write my blog by Saturday night so that I don’t have to deal with any of my late nonsense anymore.

As Frodo once told me, “This task was appointed to you, if you do not find a way, no one will”. He said someone really smart told him that once upon a time, so I figure it is sound advice.
