at the beginning of my three-week christmas break, i set out to accomplish all sorts of tasks that would get me ahead for the coming semester allowing me to concentrate on laudable goals such as getting published. but as expected -- given my recent history of productivity -- i fulfilled almost none of what i had hoped to.
now that the 21 days of vacation having dwindled to just two, i decided to forgo the final saturday of my break to finish an application for a fellowship with the la times. and of course to no one's suprise including myself, it didn't get done. i blame it on the internet; there's just too many things to read, too many things to search for.
so in the 14 hours that i was "working" on my application, i also managed to do the following productive activities:
- googled all the girls that i've messed around with whose first and last names i could still recall. what i noticed is that i could still recite half of their full names. this seemed about right to me. any more and i figure that could mean i'm intoxicated for too much of my free time.
- persused the top-10 albums of the year lists from all the major music media outlets. i still haven't figured out what's so good about mia.
- made a playlist of all the music i've downloaded and organized to make sure all the track names were correctly spelled and capitalized.
- read the scouting report for a bunch of the nfl prospects that i'm "interested" in.
i wonder what i'll find when i finish my application on sunday.
