I'm supposed to be working on a paper right now that is overdue by six or seven years, but who is counting? I've been toiling away on this for the better part of the week and today is no different. And yet again, I cannot stay focused. It's a shitty shitty day here. If the weather is going to be nasty, at least it could be nasty and french, like this view of the Louvre (taken in October on my mother-daughter-sister trip to Europe). Right now I'd also rather be at the gym, getting some exercise and sitting in the sauna where I could relax my mouse muscle - you know - it's that muscle right between your neck and shoulder that gets all bunched and pinched because you've spent too much time clicking and moving that damn mouse around and hunching over your computer?!
So for the 100th time, I just checked all my favorite sites and really just need to buckle down. I really am a very unfocused person. HELP!
On the flipside, one of my IDEAL JOBS, was just reposted again. I think it's a sign that I should apply for the job and see what happens. Maybe a move to the land of sun and shallowness is what I need. I can be shallow. I can be very shallow. Especially if I have co-conspirators!
Seriously - If I can actually finish this paper by Monday, I think I'll shit myself. It would be the end of a long long history of procrastination and shame and maybe the start of a new one. Then I'd buy myself a big big big beer.
