What SHOULD you be doing right now?

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
21

I should be studying. After getting a HD for this subject’s predecessor, I feel I have set a precedent that can only lead to tears at bedtime.

I should also be working, as I have a deadline for tomorrow. Instead, I am lying on my bed with my laptop, listening to MaxBabe snooze next to me, and reading the Dope.

I am also baaaaaaaarely resisting the urge to go play Counter-strike: Source. But resist, I must!

Max.

22

Researching stuff on the internet for school but I ended up at the SDMB.

23

I should be writing a paper on Isaac Asimov.

I have been drinking a lkot of vodka. Eight shots and no vomiting, buts’ for science!

24

Sleeping :smiley:

25

I made today’s supper and the dishes are in the dishwasher . I could be doing the laundry, i suppose.

26

Sleeping, I guess. It’s 3:20am right now but I’ve got nowhere to go and nothing to do so it doesn’t really matter.

27

Sleeping. Instead I’m nursing some Guinness and reading the SDMB at 0330.

28

Sleeping or doing some economics notes for my study group.

It’s nearly 7AM and I have work at 2PM. I’m gonna be tired.

29

Homework, or revising for my mocks, which are the week after next. What I’m actually doing, surfing the boards, chatting on IRC and on IM.

30

Packing to move, or at least fiinishing curtains for the new house… But Hermione-kitty just jumped into my lap and is purr-snoozing. It would be very rude to stand up now.

31

researching my paper on the Vietnam War because I’m stupid and I picked a subject I know nothing about.

32

I should be doing my bills.

33

Housecleaning and laundry, but I won’t have the energy for either until I finish this nice, big mug of cafe au lait. And I drink coffee very, very slowly, even when I don’t feel like procrastinating.

34

I should be either studying for the USMLE Step 3 (which I’m taking in three weeks) or some neurology so that I won’t look like an idiot on my rotation this month.

Alternately, I could be doing some work on the house, since we’re putting it on the market in a month or so.

Obviously, I’m doing none of these things.

35

I should be doing homework. And I will… in a while. It’s a pretty day so I think I’ll walk to the library and work there.

36

I should be writing up cases for a publication that’s due this week, but that would mean tearing myself away from the SDMB and reading court decisions instead. I wonder if I can do both at the same time …

37

I should be doing my sociology or world civilizations homework… or laundry, I suppose…

But, as my homework is boring, and as I loathe doing laundry at school, I’m procrastinating in a big way. Oh, look, another thread I haven’t read… skips off

38

Homework. Reading. Dishes. Job hunting. Well, actually I should have done that last one yesterday or Friday, I can’t really look today because nothing is open.

I suppose I should also do some writing as I keep promising I’ll actually finish something of novel length some day. Cripes, I can’t even keep promises to myself…

39

Emptying the dishwasher - I’ve already got more dishes to go in. It’s just one of those things I never want to do, although it only takes two seconds.

I should be drying my hair and getting dressed, because I’m meeting with some friends to play board games at three. I’m going to read the boards some more in my robe, let my hair air-dry and dash out the door at about three.
