I've found a few games of Spider Solitaire is really good. - Although try not to become addicted.
Also, Facebooking, checking up on reviews on HPFF, maybe actually doing some of my uni work.... not often though.

What did I end up doing instead of reaching 10k last night? Solved a rubik's cube. It's the first time I'd ever tried one so that took a little bit of time.
Went to bed having reached 8k. Oh well. Still good

my procrastination is simply partying :) i do quite a bit of that! and gigging. and practicing for gigs. and pooting around on the internet.
but to get me in the mood for writing, i tend to put on a good album, some jasmine incense, lock my door and just let it all flow out :)

But procrastination is bad.
-nodnod-
It's more like things that distract you through NaNo.
For example the kids TV shows that you find yourself looking up on youtube. Rottentrolls FTW!
The family telling you, you're wasting your time and it's pointless.
The fact that you have to stop to eat and go to college, forget sleep, you can live without that.
The endless screaming of the inner editor to the point you have to type with your eyes closed.
But yeah. I find my self posting in here, I think that's my procrastination, at the last hurdle I find myself not wanting to cross it.
S =
Cause, once I've crossed it, I have no guild lines.
----------And I'm lost in the wilderness once again.

Damn YouTube! Some vids that have been distracting me...
Pachelbel's rant http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdxkVQy7QLM (be warned, you will here Pachelbel's canon in everywhere afterwards)
Eddie Izzard + lego star wars = lots of writing time lost http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv5iEK-IEzw There's loads of Eddie Izzard sketches in lego on there too :s

The Prison Break from the 12th was the last one for a while wasn't it?
----------Gutted about the writers strikes? I think they've all done it just so they can work on their novels really. :)

Oh.... my..... god!
The Eddie Izzard in Lego has ruined me for life! THAT IS BLOODY AWESOME!
Also, I would like to comment that... OH YEAH! All the writers are on strike, not for more money, but so they can work on nano. - So cool, December first they'll be fine again.
Apparently there are a couple more episodes of Prison Break before they stop from the writer's strikes. They've already got a new love interest for Michael lined up. I mean, I really don't care that Sara died, but COME ON. Let the woman go cold in her grave before you replace her!
Ok. Must stop obsessing.... and go watch 24!

Oh. I very much enjoyed that Male thread. - There are a few women in there now. So, men can look too.
I just added my favourite men to watch for procrastination. - At the moment I'm on 24, though after the Eddie Legos, I might watch some Eddie later. (I have all on DVD)

I'll keep Chris the barman busy with snow cones - you all sneak the snow upstairs. It'll be like a very quick Great Escape - except we're escaping in...
