Packing

I'm still here for another thirteen days.  Well, twelve and a half, really, but that's just a minor detail.  And yet, despite this extended time frame that remains, I'm just about ready to be gone.  I could be out in two hours if you wanted me to be, that's how little remains to be packed, organized, checked off the list.  So why on earth do I still have almost two weeks left?

To a point, I'm just accustomed to being ready this early.  It's simply the way things have worked for the past several years and the way I'm used to, which immediately makes it more likely to be the way it works right now. It's also been a wonderful strategy to avoid being productive.  While it hasn't been imperative for me to get work done, it's one of those things that would be really good were I to be able to do it in a timely and organized fashion...which I've been failing at a little bit lately.

Then again, at least I've done something useful in all of this time.  I've been procrastinating efficiently, so to speak.  Packing is one of those things that needs to be done eventually, so rather than wasting my time on the internet, I've been packing instead of working.  That way, when the time to be gone rolls around, I have few productive options left but to work.  And I know myself well enough to realize that I'm more likely to be able to get work done over the next few days if I don't have more packing left to distract me.

This has been a wasted ramble of a post.  In case you couldn't tell, I don't really have terribly much to say so I've just been spewing some thoughts out.  My apologies for the poor quality.
