The skiving-off hideout

[Cama de Rosas]

Skiving? Supposed to be working your little butt off? Then why are you here, hmm?

Tut tut, naughty. Come hide out and tell me why you're not working.

I won't be here of course...I'm working too hard...

An unfamiliar term, but a familiar concept

I'm trying to write a lengthy document, and every time I get stuck on what to write next
I go to LIt for some distraction.

 

[Mr Eames]

Shhhhh!!!

I am doing work...I PROMISE!

Well, I do work at home but I have gone from sketching to reading some Lit. Here is my excuse, I am a product designer and looking away from my work gives me a different perspective on the problem I am working on. "Thinking outside the box!"

Don't tell my boss (wifey)...please!

Ah, the old 'blank page' syndrome. Do you keep hitting 'word count' every ten seconds as well?

Course you are hun...and if your wife busts you, just tell her she looks so good you can't help but be distracted!

LOL. No, I have never gotten into that obsession.
Now that you suggest it, however....

Who was it that said
"I can resist anything except temptation."
I find all sorts of temptations here.
You've just established a new, unexpected one.

 

[Mr Eames]

I have twelve sketches done and....

I have just found myself back here and laughing at the word count thing. Reminds me of that 1987 movie "Summer School" and the 100 word paper by Chainsaw.....it was very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, well written.

Oscar Wilde I think. Who also said, "the only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it."

Wise guy.

You might say very very very very very very very very very very very wise, hey Mr Eames?

So
What else do you have to tempt me with?
