Someone make me stop procrastinating... |

I have to finish a short paper for tomorrow. A really short paper. Only two pages. But I'm in full-on slacker mode right now. Someone get me into productive mode, stat!

2. I forced myself to port a C program from MySQL to MySQL-or-ODBC |
|
I had to stay at the job until 10 pm. I ordered myself to NOT LEAVE UNTIL I FINISH THE FUCKING THING -- and yet I had to fight every code line of the way not to Alt-Tab into some non-work-related window (ahem :blush:).
But I did it. I did what I was supposed to do. Now I'm going home.

6. See, my essay is nowhere near that bad... |

It's only a two-page reply to an article. I just lack the motivation to do it right now.

I thought the assignment was due October 14...turns out it's due November 14. Every time I read the outline, I read November as October.
So procrastination wasn't really an issue after all.
