Today, I need to research and write at least seven of the required twelve pages of my phonology paper. The proper process is to do your research first and then write, but I have managed to mismanage my time and now I am unable to do that, so the researching must happen simultaneously with the writing. I post my progress here not because anybody else cares, but in the hopes that it will actually shame me into writing at a regular pace.
10:19 AM: 0 pages
11:35 AM: 1 page After trolling the internet for examples, I finally found one that would work. Too bad most of my page so far only includes tables of data, which conveniently take up lots of space. Oh well. Onward!
12:22 PM: 2 pages
1:54 PM: 3 pages I had to take a break for food. Now I need to finish this.
3:18 PM: 4 pages While I only got a page written, I'm feeling a little better about how this analysis is going. Also, I'm over halfway to my required page count before I can quit for the day. I'm optimistic.
4:15 PM: 4 pages A "brief break" turned into an hour. Argh.
4:58 PM: 5 pages
6:23 PM: 6 pages (almost) I need to take another break, ugh.
