Things I Should Be Doing And Am Not

[mousme]

Apparently I should re-christen November Procrastination Month.

I have a ton of things that I should have done, and which are now unlikely to get done before next week. Next week, in case anyone missed it (and Lord knows I nearly did), is December.

1- Posting to my PBeM. I suck. I have an admin-type email to send, too, and am procrastinating on that because part of me is screaming "Nooooooo!" and the reasonable part of me is telling the unreasonable part of me that I am depriving other people of a valuable slot.

*whiiiine*

2- Writing my thing for Capricornucopia. Did I mention that I suck? 'Cause I do.

3- Writing my serials. I still suck.

4- Writing my novel. Still with the suck.

5- Editing the novel that is already complete. More or less. See above: sucking.

6- Exercizing. Hahahaha it is to laugh. What is this "exercize" of which you speak? I am apparently unfamiliar with the term.

7- Eating healthily. I am doing about 50% okay with this. The main food I eat is healthy. I just need to... not eat nearly as much dessert/unhealthy snack-type food.

8- Getting my errands run. I am not doing this as efficiently as I could, and thus a lot of time is getting wasted, and many of my errands aren't getting done.

*sigh*

So, yeah. I have no excuse, except maybe that I've been working mostly night shift, and that tends to mess me up. I need to get better about this, though, because night shift or no, life needs to go on.

You do not suck alone.

1. Taxes, now more than a month past THE EXTENSION.

2. Billing for work just finished

3. Disability paperwork, SIX MONTHS overdue, and if I mess this up, I starve, so you'd think that...

4. Illinois trip recap

5. Baltimore trip recap

6. Buying a stove which replaces the one which BROKE IN MARCH

7. Reporting in to Team Ankh, confessing my shame, etc. Exercise? What is this of which you speak?

8. Mailing a guitar to Iraq, a month late

9. Wrapping holiday gifts FROM LAST YEAR for delivery a year late.

And so on. ((( Phnee )))

Stop being a perfectionist. You are doing great. You are already Super Woman. You don't have to be perfect and get *everything* done.

I regret to inform you that you will not be receiving the Procrastination Queen title. Sorry. You, in fact, are not even close to the title. We have been reading all the posts with the massive amount of nesting work you have accomplished as well as all the food stuff you have been cooking and storing. Nope you might be somewhere mid-list but you are no where never the top 5.

So next year to claim the title we suggest to just post list after list of things that you know you should do and then write all the stuff that you did instead and then you might MIGHT have a chance.

Sincerely,
The Procrastination Comm...

I understand how you feel. There are many things I set out to do that I have yet to finish but you can only do what you can.

re 1: I was wondering what was up with that.

You know, there's always base staff as an alternative middle step. There's no posting requirements for base staff, you won't be holding up a team when life gets busy, and you can still play the character whenever you feel like bringing him out. I can always make up a project he's desperately needed to lead on base.

Think about it. {{hugs}}

dude, seriously? so your priorities changed. shit happens. just because those things are not priorities anymore does not mean you suck, it means that you are a normal person who has different priorities. you will get to those things. I promise.
