doing thing tips from a gifted silly who's on the edge of sanity but can't seem to break
1. find that balance of "enough to keep you engaged, but not distract you"
Taking away all distractions is dumb because then you get distracted by your brain because of boredom. Make your space a nice place to be! Then, put on music or background noise or have fidget toys, something for stimming so you don't get bored and don't wanna do the thing. Math fucking fucks so I always blast rock music in my ears (it does take me a lot longer to get it done when I do this, but I enjoy it and it's better than never getting it done)
2. if procrastinating, acknowledge why you're procrastinating
I like this Ted-ed video:
youtube
It validated my experience with procrastination and helped me to realize what was causing it, which made the task (my assignments) feel less scary. Thinking about this and rewatching the video every once in a while helped make my work seem not so bad.
3. half-ass now, half-ass later
this isn't really good if you have an assignment that's due in like 2 hours or something, but if it's not due right away or something like cleaning this tip applies
sometimes you just don't have the energy. so half-ass it. put only a little bit of effort into it. get some of it done.
half-ass is better than no-ass. then, you do the other half. or just continue to do little chunks of your task until it gets done.
you sweeped the kitchen, but didn't vacuum the carpet? great! you got some of it done, take a break, and do the vacuuming later.
you wrote the intro paragraph of your essay? awesome! it's not finished, but you're making progress. take that break.
4. help others
i don't know, but i like helping others more than helping myself. i use that to my advantage. (feynman technique)
you don't wanna do it? well your friend needs help doing it, so go do it so you can help them.
you don't wanna do it? show your kid how to do it. or think about how you would explain it to your kid if you don't have one yet. or explain it to your cat. or think about how you would explain it to your cat if you don't have one yet.

If you were a little stuffed toy with a voice box inside and someone pulled your string what would be the short little catch phrases you'd say?

Frank, what kind of music would you like at your funeral?
I'll have a traditional Western-style funeral without music.

COVID is not yet finished with me, but I think today I'm finally turning the corner. The sore throat I have had with this is the worst I've ever had. In my adult life, at least. I was seriously starting to get concerned that I also had strep on top of everything. But the pain is starting to back off, I think. My voice seems to swing between "smokes six packs a day" and "awkwardly going through puberty".
I have not sneezed. NOT EVEN ONCE. If I'm gonna be sick, at least give me that T^T
I haven't been sick since like 2019, so this has sucked a lot, but it did give me the chance to try out some pine cone syrup I made last year. I had heard it was good when you have a cold, so I've been putting it in tea, and it's rather delightful. By itself it's surprisingly fruity and tart, and in the tea it's subtly sweet. It has a resinous quality to it as well that sort of coats your mouth and teeth. I didn't find it unpleasant, though. I have not tried eating the pine cones themselves. Yet.

So, yeah. Pine cone syrup. Stick that in your sick fics.

Song of the day. I have been awake since 2:30 am due to a migraine, so the music this morning has been more on the mellow side. If I didn't have a very important 9 am meeting with a client today, I would definitely be calling in dead. I honestly probably should anyway because of what usually accompanies a migraine this bad...
