Worst tasks for procrastination
What tasks are most likely to be the subject of procrastination for you, and why?
Financial and legal stuff is the worst for me -
I've been putting off some Social Security Administration stuff for two years now. I put it on my list almost every week but I never do it. I dread that stuff so badly, and usually I find that if I go ahead and do it it is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Even if it's horrid, it still feels good to get it over with. Sometimes I pay bills late when I really have the money to pay them, I just hate and fear money stuff so much I will do anything else rather than that.
Phone calls - I hate making even the simplest phone calls. I will search for businesses that I can communicate with via email just to avoid that phone. Why? Who freaking knows? It's dumb.

My worst problem is anything related to finances, accounting, insurance or taxes. My brain shuts off. I hate it so passionately that I will procrastinate forever on it. I haven't filed tax returns since 2003. That should tell you something. :(

They send me very indignant and demanding mail. Hmph.
