I. Really fail at this, huh. |D I used to get upset that my flist would disappear to Plurk, and then I got one, and...well. Kettle called the other day, said my name was now Pot, and told me I was looking a little black there

I know what you mean. I'm not good at lists, mostly their mental, but still it's gotten pretty bad lately as to what I prioritize and get done. Frankly, I blame burnout from school and the fact that I'm REALLY freaking out about these MA Comps that are quickly approaching. It seems the more I worry there is a counter point that results in me goofing off more. I mean, I am TRYING to study and prepare the best I can for a test that there is really no way to prepare for...but it's hard to motivate myself for ORZ

Not sure if that makes any sense but oh well |D

Also, yeah, sleep...who needs SLEEP. Sleep is lame.

Hey, it's a you!

I'm exactly the same with the lists thing, though obviously not quite as dedicated as you- I have a habit of losing mine. XD But I've been there before especially with fandom stuff being more have to than want to, and you're right, there's no point forcing yourself if it's not fun right now.

Kilts are always kind of hit and miss, but they make formal events over here good for a laugh. Unofficial rules dictate at least one guy will always turn up in a kilt. (Of course, if there's two or more, one guy will have a really amazing awesome kilt and all the others will spend the evening looking put out and feeling overshadowed!)

Yeah, I definitely get the idea of guilting yourself over not doing enough. It's really easy for me to turn even fun into "another thing I have to do and am not good enough at," rather than, you know, FUN. It's a silly cycle, and very destructive on top of that.

I tend to be most sane when I'm able to let all that go and live by the motto "Celebrate Progress." Sometimes it feels a little silly going, "Yay, I went grocery shopping and went to the motherf***ing bank like an adult!" or "I applied to one job; good for me!" But the alternative is wallowing in depression and getting even LESS done.

And yes, get some sleep, for goodness' sake.
