New word: procraftenate

I think I just made a new word while emailing in a semi-sleepy working haze email I just sent.

 To Procraftenate: when one uses crafts to procrastinate from work.. like say blogging instaed of finishing the maps I need to get out for tommorrow.

 Has anyone else ever used this word??

 

I wonder?

    That could not possibly be more awesome.

    (As an English major, may I suggest that you spell it “procraftinate”?)

    Ahh.. but it could be better.. at 10:00 on my ride home I realized the knitting extension to this word is…

    procraftaknit

    YEAHHHH!!!

    I guess it could be more awesome, then.

    I’m still pulling for “procraftiknit,” though. Should you set up a poll?

    I’ve never used the word, however I have done it MANY times. The laundry pile can attest to that:)

    My votes also go for using an i instead of an a or e :)
