Got time to kill before work.
I've been analyzing my procrastination habits lately.
I started a new position at work (I'm now a scheduler of sorts) and while I was training for the job, I was simultaneously doing the actual work for my job... so now I have... nothing to do while we work extra hours due to an inspection.
I spend most of my time doodling around on the internet. I also think it'd be bad form to just whip out my Nook and start reading something (one thing I've learned about working in an office is to always look busy, which, I've also learned, just involves furrowing your brow and doing your best imitation of Rodin's "The Thinker".)
Anyway, I think writing out lists is a better way for me to visualize the things I need to do. I have a friend who left for the Navy and is currently in basic training. I've got his address and I've got pen and paper-- fully poised to write a letter and somehow I haven't written him yet. I fully intend to and I've got the envelope stamped and ready to go, I just need to... y'know, do it.
My room is also a complete disaster area and I could definitely spend some intimate time cleaning it up but video games always trumps cleaning. Always.
Finally, I keep telling myself I'll do this (maybe I should put it on that list I'll never muster up the energy to make), but I want to try and write down the fleeting thoughts I have that I want to write about. There's only one story I wrote a few years ago that was based on a wandering thought and I still think about expanding on it to this day. I just remember sitting down and writing it out, page after page (...there were only, like, three pages...)-- but the excitement! The brainstorming! For some reason, I really wanted to get those words outta my head.
I plan on getting to it sometime.
Someday.
Whenever.
I mean, I got time, so...
