What are you dreading/seriously procrastinating right now?
I’m fighting myself to finish my Christmas projects. I took a break because I ran out of materials and didn’t want to go to the craft store around Black Friday. I have finishing touches to put on two, and a whole third one to do. They’re easy, and take relatively little effort or thought now that I’ve done so many and I can breeze through them, but I just CAN. NOT. DO. IT.
What are you putting off right now?

Virtually everything. The holidays are depressing. It’s hard to get anything done this time of year.
I have a few sound cues left to build for a children’s play I’m working on. They are due in six hours and this is the last play I’ll be working on for quite a few months. I just don’t want to get started.
My job (document control) tends to get pretty tedious, so I’ve been seriously procrastinating that for a while now. Luckily i’ve got some IT stuff to tend to.
cleaning out my garage. I have to keep telling myself “you eat an elephant one bite at a time”
This is way to classic but cleaning my house. We have to get it done by my due date but it is such a mess due to me being lazy (no other excuse). Argh! Not only that but it’ll take money to do it right and I have to do it right (and am strapped on cash, who isn’t?).
This 10 page research paper which is due Sunday. Only have about 1 page done so far.
Honestly? Getting dressed. I’ve been walking around half naked all afternoon trying to decide what to wear. I had no clean clothes left so now I’m just waiting on my clothes to come out of the washer.
Going to the dentist. I have a broken tooth on both sides of my mouth for weeks/months but am really phobic (unfortunately my insurance does not cover sedation dentistry & I can’t afford to pay for it). Just made an appt on 12/9 because the one of the left is starting to hurt. <sigh>
Ugh finals. The worst is that I got an independent study approved for the semester. I have yet to start. The professor finally remembered and emailed me to come show him what I have so far. Have to somehow do the whole project within two weeks without him catching on:(
Planning/writing my sketch show. I’d have to acknowledge that I can handle things like an adult and a leader, which frightens me. I am used to being an underling.
Looking for a date. I would have to acknowledge that I am not a child and can handle beong in a relationship, I can handle it if someone I am attracted to isn’t interested, or if all some man wants is to sleep with me and nothing more, then that is no reflection of my worth as a partner.
Lastly, I have procrastinated in emotionally letting some people go. As long as I hang onto them with the childish beliefs I’ve developed about always needing their approval and fearing them at the same time, I may as well still be 4 years old.
I am capable of being, doing, accepting, handling and coping so much more than I’ve allowed myself to be.
Exams, 2 projects, and 2 papers. All next week :(
I’m in this quiz thing and we have a tournament on Sunday. I really haven’t been studying a whole ton lately. Yikes!!
AWWWWCRAPINAHAT.
You just reminded me of the two big Christmas projects I forgot all about. rackem frakem sakermarole Guess I know what I’m doing this week/weekend. Dang. Still, thanks for the reminder!
Beyond that- I’m putting off vacuuming. There’s tinsel bits everywhere and I’m trying to convince myself it’s festive.

House cleaning as well. But I figure I have to clean, clean before xmas so why do a lot now?
Right very now, I’m procrastinating getting a shower and getting dressed for my dinner date with my husband.

I’m procrastinating on my homework..like I do every night.
Answering your 10k question in a manner befitting your wonderful contributions to Fluther.
I need to keep up with walking a mile every single day of the year, but I rarely do it.
I have two huge final papers due in a week. I haven’t started working on either of them. Uhh… shit.
New editorial for a gaming publication. I promised I’d do it, have an idea for it, etc.
