I should also add that my son's reason for salting his butt was that it would sting and encourage him to do with math homework faster. Never mind he spent more time salting his butt than his homework took.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Um, I'm pretty sure it's getting your mind ON to ickyness.
On to a different form of ickyness. And, ickyness that I don't have to personally deal with (thank heavens).

I love his reasoning skills. He would do better in my speech class than my current students. Faulty reasoning? Sure, but at least he's thinking!
Now, I'm going to go do my onerous task and make copies and hunt down empty boxes.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Off to finish my book!

Onerous Tasks ENGAGE!
I actually already did a mildly onerous task while waiting for official time: sweeping out the bedroom of the extra dogs under the bed. And because the bedroom was a mess, that meant doing the laundry and the dishes and a bunch of other stuff, but now the bedroom is clean except for the dressertops. Which is a whole 'nother task.
Now! What for today's onerous task? I have a big one in mind, writing the letter to Mary, Moses' mom, but I don't know if I can handle that one even yet. So instead I think I'll tackle October data entry.

encourage him to do with math homework faster
Now I totally want to suggest this to CJ next time he lingers over his homework.
My car is all set for the winter, over $400 more than I expected to spend. Luckily I'm pretty well done with my holiday shopping. Ouch. Maybe if I had taken the car in during the Onerous Task hour, it would have somehow been better.
For this hour, I plan on calling my car insurance to review my policy and hopefully lower my bill.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have made my Onerous Task phone call and am awaiting further instructions on that matter. I suppose I should do some of my not so onerous tasks meanwhile, rather than sit here surfing the net.
Ooh, breaking down cardboard boxes! I keep putting that off, it must be onerous.
