Git-r-done.

Git-r-done (pronounced git-ter-dun), for those of you who may not be familiar with weird-o American slang, is a funny way of saying "get it done" (why does explaining something funny suddenly make it sound dumb?).  Hmm.  Anyway.....tonight I FINALLY did a task that has honestly been gathering dust on my kitchen counter for at least 6 months.  Finally!  It's done!  Going to the post office tomorrow!  Git-r-done!  And it feels awesome.

I wish I hadn't been such a horrible procrastinator, but it is great to finally start crossing some really old items off of my list (this was so old it wasn't even ON any lists anymore).  Maybe this momentum will last, and I can git-more-dun (that doesn't work, does it?).

Off to slay the clutter dragons!

  1. Funny. pronounication that is. An Australian would probably say Ged-id-dun. Well that's my take on it anyway.

    Good for you for getting it done.

  2. Sometimes when I have alot more at work to do I think to myself "just hunker down and git-r-done" then I try to power thru the work.It's my signal to tough it out!
