In the two hours I've been at work, I have:

Written not 1, not 2, but 3 different to-do lists, categorised by subject and importance.

Tidied my desk, stacking the post-it note blocks into piles according to size.

Gone through all the answering machine messages just to double check I did write them all down. I may call them back in an even slower moment than now.

Arranged all the papers into piles and stacked them up according to their order on the to-do list(s) to work through at a steady pace.

Googled 'procrastination'.

Googled 'how to procrastinate'.

Followed some tips I found.

Gone through my email inbox.

Drank 3 bottles of water and got through 5 pieces of chewing gum. (Now 6.)

Written a pros and cons list for going home at lunch time instead of buying a manky sandwich.

Assessed the sky at regular intervals to check for impending rainclouds.

Checked all the email inboxes again.

Sighed.

Opened Word.

Blinked a lot.

Sighed some more.

Written two sentences of minutes from a meeting last Thursday.

God, I'm exhausted.
