Stagnating

I am in that terrible end of semester anti-productive mood. Actually, it tends to happen around midterms as well. Really anytime I have a lot of stuff building up that needs to be done.

Basically, I am currently mentally denying the fact that I have work to do and instead of working on one of the myriad of upcoming projects (including homework that is theoretically due this afternoon but I've decided to ignore completely), I am sitting on the sofa, updating my blog, watching Martha and considering what to eat.

Why does this happen?
