Why Not Procrastinate? Pt. 2

Mondays are hard. I am not feeling like working, even though I have much working to do. I've actually been busier than expected for the last five or six weeks, but now I have a small stretch in which I have very little booked into my planner. I still have plenty to do, of course, but it is harder for me to structure my time when my day looks a little empty. I should make some lists.

Things I have not done yet today:

• written my logs for my last two visits to my project site
• planned my next project visit
• made an appointment with my advisor
• started actually writing my thesis
• sorted through all my emails
• eaten anything other than a banana and some nuts (and, if we're being totally honest, a couple of hershey kisses in seasonal-colored wrappers)

And now, to make myself feel better, things that I have done today:

• extensively shopped online for patio furniture
• shopped online for urban gardening books
• shopped online for new drapes
• restrained myself from actually buying anything online since I'm broke due to the fact that I unexpectedly had to pay a huge security deposit on a new apartment
• submitted an invoice for work last week in hopes of receiving money to buy gardening equipment
• walked to nicole's house to feed/walk her sweet puppies since she is out of town
• made it home from nicole's in time to meet the fresh direct delivery guys
• blogged about not doing any work

That does actually make me feel much better.

It's only 1:30. I still have plenty of time ahead of me. Let's see if I can knock anything off of that first list.
