Waiting for a very important phone call from the solicitor, surrounded by a pile of work so mind dumbing it hurts to do any of it for more than a few minutes at a time but which I must get done today on account of my not being here for the next two.
Procrastinating hard.

Hexus, Digg, GameOn, many cups of tea, mentally running through furniture layouts for Saturday, emailing my friends with nonsense.
And a lovely young lady from the Bridges team has just distracted me with a request for help, how could I possibly turn her down...?

Make sure you measure said furniture... you don't wanna have non-opening doors etc (my bed "just" fits in my room...)
Forums + news sites = no work done at all.
You're all amateurs!!
True procrastination - of a higher state of consciousness - involves doing stuff peripheral to what your actually doing. Sufficiently related so that your conscience is salved, but sufficiently unrelated so that you don't actually get anything done. Reading up about a given subject and additional 'research' are great examples...
Perusing websites and forums is just too easy! You have to get it to the point were you're literally seconds from actually doing work, but you're still putting it off.....Oh, so close!

So wise, IEEE RSS feeds FTW!
I've taken to doodling little block diagrams of the changes that I want to make to improve whatever system I'm currently developing once I've finished getting this urgent thrown together "just make it work" version done. That and coffee are my main ones, and obviously Hexus keeps drawing me in regularly.
Today I can Hexus with a clear conscience though, because I am ill

I'm sure we had this thread before and I amde that exact same joke..
As it goes, I am procrastinating right now, what I should be doing is my 'annual performance review' or 'Annual reasons not to give G4Z any more money document' as I like to call it.
