Yeah, this entry is post dated, but I really tried to write yesterday, and even though I accomplished exactly nothing, it was interesting to see the method of my procrastination. It’s that time of semester when the grading starts to pile up. I promised myself that I would write before I graded anything. Instead, I found myself moving around piles of paper. The cycle seemed to go like this:
- Ask: What should I work on?
- Decide that I needed to organize my various projects before I could start working on any of them
- Move around stacks of paper trying to get some order
- Instead of working to organize writing projects, I would find myself moving around class materials, especially piles of homework
- Realize that I’m not writing, return to step 1
Tomorrow, that is today, I am going to just catch up with homework grading and see how that works. It should go quickly since it’s all so well organized at this point.

It’s week 8, about half way through the semester, and I’m keeping true to form. Any resolutions I made at the beginning of the semester have been defeated, any research I did over the break has composted into so much more office litter.
