Procrastinators Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from chronic procrastination.
I'm stalling. I got up pretty late. I had breakfast, and then fell into a deep sleep again for several hours. There were a few days where I couldn't sleep, so I guess I'm catching up. I went to the store, and now... I'm stalling. I have a slight headache. I've been picking at my pile a little. Maybe I'll go out again.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Procrastination is the grave in which opportunity is buried.
Finally got out for a run, showered and cleaned up my room. Now, gather experimental results (yes, I'm *still* trying to do that)
Also to do today (still on holiday, so only packing, organizing, and cooking are musts, but I'd like to do as much as possible): 1)Pack 2)Organize papers, prepare work for plane 3)Deal with email 4)Send out recommendation reminders 5)Help cook/clean for friends coming over tonight 6)Write thank-you notes
Bit of a mental block on these expt. results, but I took the first step and found my results. Next, I have to figure out how to do error bars...this is a bit embarassing for a science student, but I'm not quite sure what error bars mean, so I'm going to read an article on them next and then try making appropriate error bars for one graph.

My Plan of DOOM: Be miserable at this hockey game the whole time.
My thoughts/feelings: I am so unhappy. I have no way to get out because I am just sooooo tired already from working on things. I'm really at a standstill.
I'm in moajor panic mode. I can't get anything done. I just freeze up. Oh my God, I am so stressed out and I can't get out of it no matter how hard I try. I'm really really upset.
Hello everyone. I forgot to pay a bill, and while nobody will be there (or at least the office), I want to get it paid before the end of the month. That's the biggie for today. I also have some outside work to wrap up before the temp drops in a day or so. One work project needs alot of time yet, but I think I'm going to wrap up those other things first, and focus on the work later without distraction. Procrastinating? Yes. to do: morning spiritual period pay bill (and any other things while in town) outside work at home half a day at work
Good morning! I am so glad to be back at work. I was on vacation last week but nothing turned out as planned and I'm even farther behind than I was before the vacation! However, no point in looking back, one can only look forward so here we go:
- Don't drink coffee! It's sort of a work ritual so I'm craving it now, but I know I don't need it - Catch up on email from last week - check to see if I turned in my time sheet for last week - clean out my work bag - review my action lists - reread all the linux/wps emails and verify resources needed for new project - leave early to avoid the frigging football bowl parade.
Excuse me for being such a party pooper but I fricking hate parades. Happy New Year!
all email has been read and answered if needed. lunch break - journal, update calorie king (online diet site), meditate for 5 minutes and visualize a productive and successful day
I'll check in again at 1 to make sure I don't extend my lunch break time with stuff like web surfing, then work on the WPS project for an hour.
Speaking of diets, I got on the scales this morning and I lost a pound, after a week of 1) not exercising 2) eating candy, cake, cookies, and pie. Of course I was sick for part of the week, so maybe that had something to do with it - but its quite ironic that I haven't lost any weight in the last three months of diet and exercise and then lost a lb. in the week I didn't do either one. Maybe I could market this diet - Lose Weight by lying in bed and eating BonBons!

I like to spend New Year's Eve cleaning for some reason. It's my New Year's Eve tradition. I never go out - just watch TV and clean. So far, I've:
- Washe dishes.
- Vacuumed floor.
- Dusted and polished coffee table.
- Dusted and polished dresser and TV.
I made my own furniture polish from olive oil and distilled vinegar. I decided to stop using overpriced, toxin-filled commercial cleaning supplies.

Hello everyone. I forgot to pay a bill, and while nobody will be there (or at least the office), I want to get it paid before the end of the month. That's the biggie for today. I also have some outside work to wrap up before the temp drops in a day or so. One work project needs alot of time yet, but I think I'm going to wrap up those other things first, and focus on the work later without distraction. Procrastinating? Yes.
to do:
morning
spiritual period
pay bill (and any other things while in town)
outside work at home
half a day at work
Journey 8:30
Good morning! I am so glad to be back at work. I was on vacation last week but nothing turned out as planned and I'm even farther behind than I was before the vacation! However, no point in looking back, one can only look forward so here we go:
- Don't drink coffee!
It's sort of a work ritual so I'm craving it now, but I know I don't need it
- Catch up on email from last week
- check to see if I turned in my time sheet for last week
- clean out my work bag
- review my action lists
- reread all the linux/wps emails and verify resources needed for new project
- leave early to avoid the frigging football bowl parade.
Excuse me for being such a party pooper but I fricking hate parades.
Happy New Year!
Journey
Journey 11:45
all email has been read and answered if needed. lunch break - journal, update calorie king (online diet site), meditate for 5 minutes and visualize a productive and successful day
I'll check in again at 1 to make sure I don't extend my lunch break time with stuff like web surfing, then work on the WPS project for an hour.
Speaking of diets, I got on the scales this morning and I lost a pound, after a week of 1) not exercising 2) eating candy, cake, cookies, and pie. Of course I was sick for part of the week, so maybe that had something to do with it - but its quite ironic that I haven't lost any weight in the last three months of diet and exercise and then lost a lb. in the week I didn't do either one. Maybe I could market this diet - Lose Weight by lying in bed and eating BonBons!
