Because I am currently being plagued by a horrendous case of procrastination and MUST finish a freelance assignment I'm working on by this afternoon.
I am also going to attempt to wear the pair of seemingly-worthless glasses that I got last year because staring at a computer all day at work was hurting my eyes and giving me headaches - and to appease me, the doctor wrote me a prescription for glasses that are basically non-glasses, that's how low the prescription is. But I keep getting headaches lately, probably because I CANNOT STEP AWAY FROM THE INTERNET. So, everyone keeps telling me if I actually WEAR the glasses on a consistent basis, they may actually become helpful and not contribute to my headaches, but alleviate them. So I will try them.
And I will try to do work. This means that if I respond to any of your comments over the next three hours or so, that means I am still procrastinating, and you should really feel free, in fact you are encouraged, to chastise me.

Chastise? Um, don't even go there! I'm much too old for thoughts like that.
To be a tiny bit more serious. Yes, the Internet can be a bit addictive, can't it?
I hope you get your project done and I even hope the glasses help, but I won't hold my breath on that one.
Good luck :)
I SO know what you mean. I'm often tempted to find a place to work without an internet connection, so I'm not distracted by Twitter and FB and the like. But then, of course, I would have a tricky time sending and receiving important client pdfs and documents, and doing research. Sigh.
And speaking of glasses, I noticed at my h.s. reunion last weekend that I was the ONLY woman wearing glasses. Sigh again. Why the stigma, still?
Anyway, good luck with everything today!
After 20 years as a PR practitioner, I am now home with my kids and freelancing, and I tell you what - I *know* the pain that comes with procrastination. Reminds me of the hardest part about doing something: DOING IT. LOL!
