I need a break and I haven't even started

I have approx. two hours to complete edit and proof a 70 page manuscript... so why am I on here? Because I'd rather be taking a nap.

As much as I'd like to be, I'm not a 100% hard worker all the time. To top it off, when I've had to give that percentage for a couple of days in a row, things start to slide.

I really wish I could be napping now. Seriously. I think I need another Aleeve too, as I had a root canal yesterday. Though my headache is on the opposite side of my head and actually started before I went to the dentist yesterday morning. I hope everything is ok with the tooth over there.

Speaking of side tracking-
I find I need to log on to Facebook and blogs when things are so crazy like this. They probably don't actually take less time that doing something else instead, but they seem like they do. Also I still feel like I'm being productive. So I feel less guilty for not doing what I actually should be doing.

It's a weird mindset because in actuality I'm probably accomplishing far less than had I tried to lie down for 15 minutes.
But there is no guarantee I'd wake up from that in time. So here I am.

I don't think I'm the only person who does this. Of course I could be rationalizing.
Is my procrastination really so bad that I procrastinate down to the last minute?
No, I think this week/month/year has just been tooooooo busy already.

Can not wait until May.
