Humor: Procrastinators
Delay provides time for wiser decisions, right?
PROCRASTINATORS:
If at first you don’t succeed,
hopefully there is a tomorrow.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Today is the "tomorrow"
procrastinators were waiting for yesterday.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Procrastinators don’t want a 48-hour day.
They want a tomorrow that is 48 hours away!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Procrastinators are sure that
what “needs to be done today,”
is something that can wait for the right today,
which generally is at least the one tomorrow turns into.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Procrastinators’ Motto: never put off until another day,
that which can be put off until another month.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Procrastinators tend to apply for jobs as waiters.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Unlike most males their age,
procrastinators have fewer fears about proposing marriage.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Procrastinators are not likely to be
looking out the window to know
as soon as the mail gets delivered.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Sometimes even I am put off
by my putting off!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The "Master Procrastinator" is the one who
puts off the putting off, until tomorrow.

If you could do it today, would you?

Because the arthritis has flared up in my hands, I do have to put a few thing off until the swelling leaves.
As Queen of procrastinators, I can vouch for the above and soooooo much more lol. Thanks for pointing these out ;)
Tres amusing. I almost put off reading this one ... so glad I didn't.
Quite clever, acerbic, and utterly accurate observations. Loved them. Good Hub.
Puts me in mind of the song from "My Fair Lady" called "with a little bit of luck"

I've put off replying to your comments until now, but now I will have to wait until I remember what I was going to say!

Angie Jardine: You gave me a good chuckle and a lingering smile with your comment that you almost put off reading this, but are glad you didn't. Touche!

Aren't we glad that most people we know (with a few exceptions) don't pur off getting dressed each day?

It's Saturday. So what are YOU putting off today?

Surely a procrastinator's favorite sayings would have to include this one: "Haste makes waste."
