I thought I'd sum up my thought process over the last hour, as I've sat around not doing very much at all...

"Argh, so much work to do, and I don't really have the motivation to do any of it"

this leads to

"I really should write about this disenchantment on my blog..."

but is rebutted by

"Don't be silly! Firstly, it's blisteringly unoriginal and teenagery. Secondly, you'll depress anyone reading it. And most importantly, you'll feel really silly reading this back later"

(as a side thought:

"In comic books, you have speech bubbles and thought bubbles. Why don't we have thought marks as well as quote marks?")

The most important outcome, really, is that time has moved on so any expectations of getting work done have shifted rather lower down the expectation scale.
