Innovate Your Web Design with Imagine
A Funny Thing Happened on The Way to Building My Own Website
So, there I was, all pumped up to finally build my own website. You know, the one I’ve been dreaming about since the dawn of time—or at least since the last time I scrolled through a hundred small business websites at 2 AM. I grabbed my coffee, sat down with my laptop, and thought, “Today’s the day!” Little did I know, the universe had other plans.
Getting in My Own Way
First, I had to rewatch the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I mean, come on, who doesn’t need to immerse themselves in epic fantasy before tackling something as monumental as a website? I settled in, ready to be transported to Middle-earth. But by the time Frodo had left the Shire, I realized my “quick” rewatch was going to take a while. A full nine hours later, I was still glued to the screen, cheering for Gandalf and contemplating the real-life implications of wearing a cape. Spoiler alert: they don’t come with pockets.
Now, you’d think I could at least work on my website after that, but nope! I had dinner plans with the guys. You see, this was no ordinary dinner. This was a sacred gathering where wings, pizza, and questionable life choices were made. Naturally, the game was on, and the only thing I could build was a pizza tower. As we cheered (and sometimes wept) over the latest match, I realized that my website plans were dwindling faster than my pizza slice.
The next day rolled around, and my enthusiasm was still high. But wait—what day is it? Ah yes, Monday. The dreaded Monday. The day when you drag yourself out of bed, and everything feels like an uphill battle. I couldn’t possibly build my website on a day when the universe is conspiring against me. I mean, if Mondays were a person, they’d be that one friend who shows up to the party with bad vibes and a playlist of sad breakup songs.
Embracing Rationalizing for Fun
Tuesday arrived, and I thought, “Okay, I can get to it now!” But Tuesday is just a glorified extension of Monday. I was still in the ‘getting warmed up’ phase of the week. It felt like being a sloth at the Olympics—slow and slightly confused about what I was supposed to do.
Hump Day! Wednesday! The day I should be making significant progress, right? Wrong! All I could think about was that It’s Hump Day commercial. Instead of coding, I found myself Googling “funniest camel videos.” Procrastination? More like a Wednesday tradition.
Thursday rolled around, and I was finally feeling the weekend vibes creeping in. I thought I could carve out some time to work on my website, but alas, it was too late. The week had been a marathon of distractions, and I was on a mission to live for the weekend. Thursday nights are meant for daydreaming about freedom and planning out epic weekend escapades. Building a website? Nah, let’s talk about which bar has the best happy hour specials instead!
Procrastination Feels Great
Finally, Friday arrived, and my excitement was palpable! The weekend was just hours away! The energy was electric, and I had zero intention of sitting in front of my laptop. After all, it’s practically a crime to work on a Friday when there are parties to attend and Netflix shows to binge-watch! As I stepped into the weekend, my to-do list became a ‘to-don’t’ list, filled with fun activities like dancing like nobody’s watching and eating snacks like they’re going out of style.
And then, the weekend came. I had grand plans, but somehow, “partying” took precedence over “productivity.” You’d think I could spare a few hours to finally build my website, but let’s be honest: after a week of grinding, I deserved this. So, I embraced my inner party animal and continued to ignore the blinking cursor on my laptop. Who knew that conquering the dance floor would be way more fulfilling than conquering HTML?
So, here I am, still website-less and with an embarrassing number of memes saved for later inspiration. But hey, I’ve got a fresh appreciation for epic trilogies, my favorite wing joint, and the joys of procrastination. I guess I’ll get to building my website… eventually.
Oh wait, did I just remember “Round Tuit”? Isn’t that a thing? A whole bunch of memes about getting around to doing stuff? I think I’ll Google that now.
Oh Well. Stuff Happens!
Ah yes! The legendary Round Tuit memes are a goldmine of procrastination humor. One says, “I’ll get around to it as soon as I find my Round Tuit!” If I had a Round Tuit for every time I said I’d build my website, I could create an entire procrastination empire!
As I scroll through these memes, I’m tempted to embrace my inner meme lord and make a site dedicated to my procrastination adventures. Maybe a “Procrastination Confessions” section? Or a gallery of the wild excuses I’ve used to avoid work? “Sorry, can’t build my website today—my goldfish needs training for its big debut!”
So, I promise I’ll get to my website soon, but for now, I’m diving into this meme rabbit hole. Who needs a website when you can curate a collection of procrastination gold?
