Let's see, I usually start rearranging my room. Considering it's a college dormroom, I don't have that much to work with. What do you do to procrastinate?
P.S. Did I mention checking my e-mail five times an hour?

Check email, go to the gym, clean up, talk on the phone, etc. It gets really bad when I'm procrastinating doing one of the above to put off another activity listed above.

I'm gonna put off replying to this.

what differences between people, if I lived in a college dormroom, I'd have plenty to work with....
more methods: going to the bathroom, deleting e-mail, helping someone else with something [e.g., helping with organizing something, a study, etc.]- so it's work, but of course it's not your work, sleeping, preparing fancy meals, eating while watching TV [sounds efficient, but not if you are preparing food during commercials and watching TV way after you're done eating], doing something you prefer doing that has a later or no deadline instead of something less preferred with a closer deadline - that's for starters

The key is Structured Procrastination (http://www-csli.stanford.edu/~john/procrastination.html).

If you have a roommate, I recommend working on your push pass.

BTW, how is Ultimate going?

I answer e-mails like this one.

I am too busy to procrastinate, but if I could... I bet Jonathan could give me ALOT of advice :)

I got a book on how to overcome procrastination but have not gotten around to reading it.

Yeah. Haven't checked in a few days & suddenly there's all this stuff about men being evil "game playing" bastards. (I was horribly confused for the first part of that thread... I didn't understand what she had against me playing soccer. Took about 5 posts later until the light came on... "Oh THOSE sorts of games...")

Do you know why Elmermaid & Bokenchick are kicking off?

All exciting stuff (?)
