I have a tendency to lie to myself. And sadly enough, I actually believe my filthy, filthy lies a significant chunk of the time.
For example, today I came back from class more than a little tired. So of course, I goofed off for an hour or so, but being the brave little toaster I am, I eventually decided to go and do my readings. On the bed. Where I always, always end up falling asleep.
But of course this time was different! Of course I wasn't going to sleep, I really just want to study. Its just more comfortable and soft over here. And stretching out all over the bed just helps me take notes better...somehow. Oh and the pillow? That's just for head support so I can read better.
And folks, I bought that hook, line and sinker. To my credit I read 3 pages until my eyelids were just so heavy, and gee maybe I'll put the book over here and zzzzzz
However, it was a nice nap, so maybe my self deception is some subconscious defense mechanism. Or maybe I'm just lazy. Hmm, I wonder if lying to yourself is a sin....
