Damnit.
I should be working on my thesis right now, what else am I doing?
Watching re-runs of Dexter with my computer in my lap hoping that in a few minutes I will feel the urge to write.
The problem, I believe, is that I have so many other things to do that it's difficult to clear my mind and just focus on the task at hand.
Because as soon as I sit down at my desk, and look at the pages of my thesis, my mind begins to whirl with all of the To Do's I still need to get through so the rest of my life can continue as scheduled:
Work on a lesson plan for the class I teach. Do my laundry. Run the dishwasher. Clean my apartment. Write an article for this blog. Write an article for Ecorazzi, where I've just been promoted to Senior Editor (yay! But, more things to do). Go to CVS to get toothpaste. Finish my homework for that screenplay writing class and stop putting it off, god damnit.
There are more things, I know there are, but I really do need to focus on this thesis, 50 pages of which are do late next week.
Any strategies you all know of to help focus? Or, perhaps some Adderall I might borrow?
Kidding... kind of.
