two-headed turtles

Must...break...out of...procrastination mode...

I really ought to have a working draft of the Argument section of my Moot Court brief complete by bedtime tonight, which means that I really ought to be writing it, right now. But there's nothing quite like a paper to write to make me incredibly productive in every area of my life except paper-writing. Thus far today I've gone to the gym, finished my Property reading for Monday, cleaned up the kitchen and run the dishwasher, done three loads of laundry, taken out a shopping-cartload of trash, booked our next North Coast B&B adventure (three nights for the price of two, right at the end of spring break), and, best of all, finally hauled the six massive Hefty bags of old work clothes out of the hall closet and down to to the St. Vincent de Paul donation bay. (Whee!)

But I haven't started my Argument yet.

I'm not feeling particularly argumentative, I guess. I woke up this morning with a jittery annoyance of a hangover from C.'s housewarming party last night (excellent tequila, two flavors of mole, and a lovely time had by all), and as busy as the day has been, I can't say I've been particularly focused on anything I've done today. Now it's already seven-thirty and I'm still just staring at section headers. At least I have those.

*sigh*
