So, what did you procrastinate on? (Or plan to.. or not plan to)

Depends. If I'm alert/had a good night's sleep, I'll procrastinate a little.

If I'm sleep deprived, I'll procrastinate until the apocalypse.

I've got a Heat Transfer test on Wednesday morning, a CAD project due on Wednesday afternoon, and another CAD project due Thursday.

The Heat Transfer test isn't much of a concern, as I've studied less than 1hr for the first 2 tests, and got >90% on each one. The CAD projects - just more busywork on the one. The other, I need to learn how to make a model in a software package called Rhino. That's the one due on Thursday. I plan to start and finish that one on Wednesday night.
Thus far, nothing is sufficiently challenging to get me concerned, which doesn't help with the motivation.

I wish I could be so predictable. Depending on how sleep-deprived I am, my mind ranges from workable-yet-usable to utterly-useless. If I'm workable-yet-usable, then I'll probably get some work done, as I'm too tired to do anything else, but conscious enough to get something useful done.
If I'm utterly-useless, then I don't get much of anything done, as you might expect.

If I'm fully awake, I can be quite productive, but I also don't like to waste a perfectly good, rested mind on something tedious, boring, and unstimulating like homework.

heat transfer was a cakewalk. Of course, my prof allowed open notes, open book. And the final consisted of 8 problems, 3 of which were from the fully worked out sample tests on line (which I handily had printed out), 4 were from previous tests (which I had with me), and only 1 problem that I hadn't seen before.

I procrastinate on everything. Especially school work. I have an exam on Wednesday, and I haven't been to a single class, or even reviewed notes. I don't even know what we learned in the class.

yeah I just filed my taxes. Well, finished up with the e-file forms, but can't actually e-file it at the moment, because it wants my 2006 income data from last year's return for the damn e-signature! Seriously? Bullshit. I don't have that on hand, and don't want to sign anything for real.

If I have to, is that going to make me technically late on taxes? Even though the taxes were filed on time, the signature was late? How does that work? lol

I planned to procrastinate once...but I never got around to it.

I have a final essay due Thursday, and I haven't even cracked the book yet...Probably do that on Wednesday night.

Too much to remember. It only gets worse as you get older. So many things left undone, so many thinks left to do, so little time.
