(no subject)

I'm a master of self-sabotage. "I'll just stop by the bookstore to browse for a couple of minutes on the way to the cafe where I intend to study." "Before I get to work I'll just do a quick e-mail check." "Just one more game of Warcraft and then I'd better get to bed."

Blah.

On the plus side, J. gets back from NYC tonight.

Good grief.

This is my first day of work this week. And the last until Tuesday, according to the boss.

This is really weird and a bit disorienting, as it has been going on for a month now. Sure, there isn't much to do here until he finishes some projects, I'm getting paid for 20 hours a week no matter what, and he genuinely wants me to have plenty of time to work on my prospectus (never mind that I am squandering that time on trifles), but it still makes it harder for me to concentrate on what little work there is to be done when I'm here.

Oh well.

While I'm on campus today I suppose I may as well photocopy a bunch of articles and catch a later train home, as J. won't be getting in until late and the cats should have enough food to tide them over for an extra hour or two.
