Leveraged, challenged, managed, collaborated, and drove "idea generation"

i'm supposed to be working on my personal mid-year assessment document. this was due to my manager and director the week of June 30th. since i was on vacay, i was told i could try for today end of day.

today end of business day, i was nowhere near done. now that today has 2 hours left to go, i'm close, but more like halfway than 95% finished. p.s. i don't think my manager's interested in checking her email at this time for the doc anyway, so i'm officially late giving it to her.

big words are being used in this document! it's actually a really useful document and a great base for discussions on career advancement. the way it's done makes sure that all your successes and areas for improvement are highlighted and even at a glance you can tell how you're doing so far. however, putting it together is a huge pain.

so instead, since i've been working from home this afternoon, i have procrastinated and haven't done too much. i have done other things, such as:
- read are they ALL yours, the truth about motherhood, shawna and her boys, and a bunch of other blogs.
- read perez hilton
- read the globe and mail - arts, sports, news, business, etc. etc.
- researched travel possibilities in spain on budget travel and travel + leisure
- read up on the chapters/indigo events as of late and noticed i missed out on lauren weisberger because i was in vancouver. boo.
- ordered sweets to be delivered to iggs for her birthday from the bent fork
- played mario kart on the wii
- watched an episode (or two) of friends
- made myself a salmon and rice dinner
- napped for an hour
- caught up on facebook for half an hour

basically, the point is, on top of leveraging, challenging, managing, collaborating, and driving idea generation this year, i should also get awarded for procrastinating.

that's all.
