AADD...

I cannot concentrate today. I have at least one full day like this a week. I have sat down three different times today to write a simple two page summary of some work I have been doing but just can't seem to spit it out. I don't think it is going to happen today. I leave here in about 15 minutes and I will probably take it home with me. Then I will start running around like a maniac to get ready for leaving town tomorrow. After meeting friends for a drink, going to the gym, and taking the dog to the park, I will most likely sit down to write it tonight and fall asleep with pen in hand. Then tomorrow morning the battle of wills will begin again. Do I finish writing it so I don't have to deal with it on Monday....or do I look at shoes online? Do I finish writing it so I don't have to deal with it....or do I check my email? I swear the internet is the kiss of death to my productivity. It's so distracting and awesome all rolled up into a nice little package accessible to me by a simple click of a shortcut on my desktop. You may be thinking "damn, just show a little restraint and get some work done!" That's a nice thought but when you sit in front of two computer screens all day it is really easy to just click on Internet Explorer and take a brief hiatus from the world. I can read the news. I can check the boys website to see if he has updated it. I can search eBay for random things like Jesus action figures or Jadeite kitchen stuff. It serves it's purpose as a distraction. I don't take smoke breaks or wander campus trying to distract myself so it's justified. Right?
