Thursday Thirteen (TT#29)

Thirteen Lame Excuses for why I wasn’t going to do Thursday Thirteen tonight
1. I have a headache.

2. It’s already after 11:00 p.m. my time.

3. I worked late tonight for the EDJ and I’m still behind.

4. I haven’t had time to write tonight which makes me GROUCHY.

5. I was on the phone with my Dad tonight for nearly an hour.

6. I’m trying really hard to stick to my diet. Which means I’m STARVING.

7. I didn’t have time to work out today.

8. I didn’t have time to read for pleasure today.

9. I owe e-mails to several friends and family, but just didn’t have time.

10. I want my novella finished by the end of the month! *panic*

11. I’m almost out of my favorite coffee, Caribou.

12. I have to get up early for the EDJ.

13. I think I just screwed up my TT template. GAH!

Your template looks fine!
Blogger screwed mine up so bad it isn’t even funny. If you go to my main page all you see is 3 pictures in my post, if you click on the direct link you’ll see the whole post. I don’t have any idea HOW that happened, and nothing I do will fix it.
Don’t you feel better getting your TT up?

I hope everything works out for you so you get more “free” time. You have to have a break too, or there is no fun in it! Have a great weekend.

I didn’t get mine posted last night. I was too busy watching the end of season 2 of House. I hate cliffhangers! Thank goodness season 3 is out on DVD soon.

I’m glad to see that your TT is up anyway. Hope today is a better day.

Just not enough hours in the day, is there? If I try to fit 2 things in, 6 others go undone. Yesterday morning I decided to crack open a novel while drinking my morning coffee. NO housework, NO writing, NO visit to the gym, NO proper attention to my kids and NO getting to bed at a decent hour… Nora Roberts sucked me in! If I hadn’t pre-prepared my TT earlier in the week, it wouldn’t have been done.

Rhian’s right, nothing else matters if there isn’t any caffeine. (Though I like the headache excuse).

Since you’re far enough away that you can’t smack me (insert evil grin) did you know that caribou coffee has these wonderful, delectable snack bars? Coffee flavored snack bars? My favorite are the mocha and the mint condition *teehee*. Sorry, I had to share. Hope you have a great weekend (I have the weekend off! Yeah!)

Okay, not having time to work out or read for pleasure are valid excuses. The others… make me glad you decided to come throw a quick list together.

Maybe Trevor’s sushi story cracked you up because of the diet? Sushi’s good diet food, you know… or maybe it got to you because you know Trevor well enough to know how he got himself out of that mess!

Happy TT, babe.

Let me tell about all the things I want to do and have no time for: writing, working out, answering my emails in time, cooking and going out.
Ugh. So I know how you’re feeling.

Happy T13 and hope the writing goes well.

Those are all excellent reasons! And yet you still managed to do it! Good job!

Argh, I hear ya Joely! Seems like there are never enough hours in the day. And I hear ya on the starving thing, too — I’m trying to stick to a diet which I just got started on, and the first week or so of cutting back is always the worst.

Happy TT, and thanks for visiting mine. Good luck with the novella!

I’m right there with you, Joley. I wasn’t going to one either.
