I received an email from my boss wanting 3 new features added to one of our in house applications. The features can't take me more than 3 days to implement, but me being the slacker that I am told him it will take 6 days to plan, implement and test. So, I will probably spend the next 3 days screwing around and bust my butt the final 3 days before I told him I'd have it done. Is this common practice for you other programmers, sys admins out there? Am I going to hell? Is my boss reading this right now?

Telling management that your project is going to take longer than it actually is is common practice.

Not spreading the work out over a number of days and making it easy on yourself in common procrastination.
 
normal, but it sucks when boss knows the ins and outs of what you are doing, then it's harder to bs your way into more time for a project 🙁
