Finish the chronology description for the site for my stratigraphy
Prepare beans for tomorrow's cooking experiment
Read another chapter of White Sails and Spindrift which is fantastic

I am allowed to take time out to watch 1 hour of tv, or 1 episode of something on my computer or from my collection.

Tomorrow I need to buy groceries, but I don't need meat and shouldn't go hungry.

If I get the stratigraphy bit done tonight, I can make scones for breakfast, assuming I have time and all the ingredients.

Stop procrastinating!

I can't believe how many people here I know have never heard of Pancake Tuesday! The time is almost upon us! Yum!


Meanwhile I have delicious rosemary bread provided and baked by tethys123. Yay! :D

( What, me, procrastinate? )

Seems pretty apt - chronicles my various levels of success in organizing myself, gaming, writing, visiting, financial woes, and school. Yup, that was my year :V

In other procrastination news, I finished, typed, and posted the newest section of Shadows chapter 7 over at measured_words. Woot!

Is it more satisfying to make cookies from scratch, which is messy and time consuming, but also gives you a bit more of a break from computing and gives great opportunity to snack-as-you-go on dough, etc; or to just go to your freezer and slice up some cookies that can go in the oven as soon as its warmed up? No mess, no hassle, you can still have raw dough (in fact, this process allowed for weeks of snacking on raw dough, depending on your resolve), but doesn't give you as much of a break....

I suppose it really depends most on what you are looking for. Which is mostly cookies, atm. I did just watch an episode of House.

Alright, back to the paper - I have two sections left to write, and two more days of working, which sounds about right.... I'm actually waaay more productive at night though, and this is my last night. So, here is me buckling down! On the other hand, I have absolutely no worries about length, as my text is up to 16 pages, and it only has to be 20+. I'll probably get two or three pages out of both the remaining sections at least, and then I have pictures to insert, and then the bibliography, woot! I;m golden, as long as I get it all done.

In random news, itunes is apparently in a Metal mood tonight - right before this is played Welcome to the Jungle...

I accomplished many of the things I'd intended to do tonight. I didn;t get groceries, however, and I didn't do a lick of work. I really just don't feel like it. And I did go to the library, which is surely *like* work. I think that I owe myself a day off for handing in those chapters yesterday. I just finished watching the opening story arc of Gargoyles, but I should probably go make me some dinner now. I'm hoping that I can continue to find good ways to slack off. I think Bronwen is willing to aid me in this. First, dinner, though. And checking my mail.

This post is so pointless that I am considering deleting it, but hell, I've already written it now ;p

Once upon a meme, many people inquired about what guilty pleasures I indulge in. I maintained, and still do, that I really don't feel guilty about any of my pleasures. I still do, for the most part. Nevertheless I will confess one guilty pleasure:

The Rick Mercer Report webpage, located here. I always watch it when I should be doing other things, like, say, now, when I should be working on my thesis. Sometimes instead of just watching the little clips from the most recent shows, I'll go look through things I've missed in the archive and poke around other bits of the site.

Canada has great political comedy shows. I do't know if the US really has anything quite like it, or like This Hour Has 22 Minutes, or Air farce, or, going back to the old days of Radio, Double Exposure. That was the first show that got me hooked on this style of comedy. Anyway Rick Mercer is love. Most of the sketches from this week are pretty good, too :D I actually went to see if he had any amusing commentary on the cabinet crazyness, but alas, no. Can't have everything, I suppose.
