This is a Lesson in Procrastination

Homework! Oh, Homework!
by Jack Prelutsky
Homework! Oh, homework!
I hate you! You stink!
I wish I could wash you
away in the sink.
If only a bomb
would explode you to bits.
Homework! Oh, homework!
You're giving me fits

I'd rather take baths
with a man-eating shark,
or wrestle a lion
alone in the dark,
eat spinach and liver,
pet ten porcupines,
than tackle the homework
my teacher assigns.

Homework! Oh, homework!
You're last on my list.
I simply can't see
why you even exist.
If you just disappeared
it would tickle me pink.
Homework! Oh, homework!
I hate you! You stink!

Things that I did to avoid doing dreaded homework:
When to dinner at the Thai Cottage…Yummy.
Slept and napped
Read Magazines
Went to see Just like Heaven
Watched TV
Did laundry
Celebrated October Fest at Sac Brew
Went to church
Helped Mr. Man’s mom with yard work
Went to Ikea and got this and this (I was going to show you everything that we got, but i couldn't find it fast enough on the web site...and i'm sure that you don't need to see EVERYTHING. I know you probably don't care about our new art, salt and pepper shakers, etc., so I;m not going to waist the time finding you links.)
Went book shopping
Went to CPK
Left my backpack at the house I was housesitting at so I didn’t have to do my hated homework
Slept and napped
Went to see Proof (I had seen the play a while back and thought it was WONDERFUL. I loved the movie just as much.)
Attacked and attempted to beat Mr. Man at wrestling
Played Tetris Attack, aka the best Super Nintendo game EVER

Wasted time online

As you can see it was a wonderful weekend, filled with all the desired activities and almost no homework.
