Procrastination… it’s an art…

Being more aware of my thinking as of late, I see all of the things that I’m doing that are an actual effort on part of my brain to put things off … How strange is this? Why not just do the things and get them out of the way????

How do I unlearn this art form I have managed to pick up … I don’t want to be a procrastinator, I like getting things done, I feel GREAT when I do. so how did this happen?
Does it really matter? … That would (delving into the why of something as useless as procrastination) be just more of the same…

No more procrastinating … if you see me, remind me of this (expects to hear it from the guys at work).
I want to get things done!!!!!
Thats what I’m going to do right now … so thats it for today

I keep going, and going, and going … umm, I don’t mean like that (get your minds out of the gutter … although … oh look ! a bird!!! … See, I just realized that a whole month has already passed in 2009… Thats a whole month of blogging, * pats himself on the back for a job well done so far *. I would like to think that what I’m rambling about here is of interest to someone other then just myself, but it’s totally possible that I’m just diluting myself here too The point is, if your reading this and you want to hear me ramble about a specific topic, drop me a note… you can comment here (comments are moderated) or if you prefer, you can use the contact form on the main part of the site.

If you know me, you know that I’m a fairly unique individual and I have a bit of a slanted view on most things. From the meaning of life and my role in it, to the illusion of time and this physically manifest vibrational existence, and including the law of attraction and how thoughts become things, and the firm belief that the glass isn’t half full or half empty, it’s completely full (half liquid, half air, but no matter what you can not get any more volume in the glass itself).

So, seeing as I have been at this a month straight already (as my own personal challenge), I challenge you, the reader to give me some suggestions. Failure to do so will result in more of my ramblings the way I see fit to ramble about things, and I will be sure to include something on the dream-spell (13 moons), more GTD, more Back on Track Experiment, more on Polyphasic sleeping, personal development, traffic, face stabbing devices, commuting, retarded people, government, spring, mountain biking, road tripping, and just about anything else that I can come up with.

Let me be honest, I’m trying to coerce you (the readers) into a suggestion or two because it would be good for me to try writing about something that someone else suggests, and it’s sure to help me become a better writer / blogger. So … Give a guy some suggestions.

Just a few things that relate to the various posts so far this year… No particular order (if your actually following along they will make sense to you).

Word of Goo has OCD Missions!!!!! (Thanks Craig) … Insanely hard missions within the missions for the obsessive people (this may take awhile, but its added a distraction I SO didn’t need).

SmallTalk will be the new language (i think) this year Craig and Steven both say the squeak distro is what I want to look at … because a Language that was written in it’s own Language sounds kinda twisted, and lets be honest, thats how I roll

Check Engine Light came back on, however I think I know why … will have to stop in and see my Mechanic to verify my suspicion.

The LMD project came up yesterday, looks like DivX 7 is using Matroska … who woulda thought? I will have to let my brain cycle through the idea a little more….

Made a list for a VA (Virtual Assistant if you were wondering Lee). Hopefully next month I will have the funds available to look into getting one for a few hours (Recommendations Anyone???) … Initial plan is for the phone project … lets see if this one can grow wings

Oh, You may have thought I wasn’t blogging for a few days .. seems that my Mac Journal doesn’t like something in my current Word Press version and my posts have been sitting as unpublished for days on end …. Rest assured I’m writing… perhaps if you notice a day is missing (they should always come in around 11:11 AM (worth a post on it’s own)) send me a nudge and i’ll kick the side of the pipe to make them fall out (I try to keep a few thoughts in queue so there isn’t really a reason to go without a post).

Rails is becoming a Love Hate relationship, as this post went live I’m in a meeting (assuming that the twiddle I did worked) with a Client about a Rails project.

I think thats enough for now…

Wow, this is exactly why I don’t play video games … I recently discovered the World of Goo, its worse then Lemmings was, (in a, this is far too addictive way). The premise is that you have different types of goo balls and you need to rescue them, some float, all are kinda sticky. I spent far too much time Sunday Evening playing this game, and then last night I finished it.

If your anything like me, once in a long while a game comes along that you just can’t put down (no matter how silli or stupid it is). World of Goo is one of these, I think I played for about 5 hours straight on Sunday (major distraction).

But I suppose that if the distraction was present, then there is something to learn from it… After all, nothing happens that isn’t supposed too right? What I’m supposed to learn from the goo balls (aside from “we’re all in this together“) I’m not yet sure, but I needed something to write about today and the little gooey guys were still on my mind, it was kinda sad that I finished it. I think that the developers should do a sequel Kudos to 2D Boy
