Deadlines (or procrastination)

I stayed home to work today because of a few deadlines to make.  Productivity was the name of the game from 8 am - 1 pm, but once I took a break to eat lunch, mmmm…

I only allow myself to read novels at night, or on the subway, or another time when I can see the end for having to stop reading, but today, I couldn’t resist picking up Jonathan Franzen’s Freedom while eating lunch.  This meant that lunch lasted two hours, until I was finally able to set the book down and start the dishes.  Dishes turned into making chocolate-covered strawberries, which turned into online grocery shopping for baking supplies, which turned into a burning need to finally make the snickerdoodles for which I bought the cream of tartar with Jessica a while ago.  Was this afternoon an example of stream-of-consciousness exemplified in real life?  LIke, why couldn’t I just suppress the desires to check out bakingworld.co.kr and then read through 4 different strawberry shortcake recipes? 

The two-hour lunch.
