Making Deals With Myself

Today I am feeling ill, and decided to stay home from university in favour of sleep. Since I have missed several of the lessons in the module I should be attending today, I made myself a deal that if I stayed home I would do a piece of my assignment work. I really should be doing this, but don't really feel like it. Though I know it's not surprising, who wants to work when they're feeling ill? But I need to get these done, and feel like I've reached a dead end.

Procrastination has never really been a major issue for me, I'll usually get to about two weeks before my deadline and do whatever I need to and still have time for the full on Guild Wars playing in the evening. This time it all seems to be piling up. The change to my schedule these past weeks didn't help (staying at Alex's mid-week instead of at the weekend), the main reason it screwed me over is because people are around at the weekend and half of my success relies on there being a sense of boredom. My work has, therefore, been put on hold in favour for more social activities, but it's funny, my blogging doesn't seem at all effected.

Now that I know I'm not doing work I find myself pondering what to do instead. I've slept for around three extra hours today, and though I have a headache, I no longer feel tired. My options you ask?

1) Play Guild Wars
2) Watch Desperate Housewives
3) Hang out with my sister
4) Sleep for 5 more hours

I'll probably start on GW, though first I'll need coffee and something to eat as, whatever it is I've got is not stomach related.

I had another weird dream last night too; it involved a lot of pole dancers and the world exploding. My hedgehog friend was there too, and so was Alex. It was strange. These troubled dreams of late lead me to believe that I'm not sleeping all that well, that and the fact that I'm tired. I'm a little worried, I can't help thinking something big might explode in my face. Occasionally I get a feeling of impending doom, and this is one of those times. I cower a little at the thought, but know that bad things happen to everyone.

Let's just hope this isn't a life-changer.
