Procrastination and the planning fallacy
Last week, had to go to the courts downtown for some personal business. Very different from all the other times I've had to go to court.
I'll tell you about it in a bit.

Just walked in the door for some physical therapy; an old sports injury's been bothering me more and more as the years've gone by so figured I'd take care of it before got much worse. PT's a funny thing where you walk in, meet someone, shake hands, and a complete stranger then puts their hands all over your body. Interesting.
S'funny how quickly time rushes by; have a tendency to keep putting things off. Shoulda taken care of this years ago but I didn't. Luckily, the lady said I should be ok but it'd take a few years.
This scientist named Jon Elster has this thing he calls the "planning fallacy" where they can't estimate how long something'll take to do cause they don't accurately remember how long it took them to do it in the past and don't take into account hiccups along the way.
Figured that I'd be much better at things and my life in general by now but I've got to get a move on things.
Speakinga which, on the last part of manuscript. Gonna publish in 2011 or die trying.
Gonna publish in 2011, hopefully.
