when AM i writing...exactly?

Right now i am in a bit of a pickle.

Not a big pickle by any means. But a pickle none the less. I have been thinking about why i have no trouble doing the research and programming portions of my thesis but i have no end of trouble sitting down to write!

I mean, i think that if i just rename and jiggle my tasks i can make it SEEM as if i am doing parts of the project that i like while doing the bits i don't like. SURELY?

It must be purely psychological. The writing for conferences and papers is not a problem. The thesis writing is.

Maybe it is not just me. When i am "working" i find i can be rude and annoying. I can ignore people and yell even. I think this is because i become intense and a bit scary. When i am writing other people will come and look at what i am doing...see that i am writing....and then say

"Oh, you're just writing"

and then talk to me. They know i am going to talk back and probably be distracted by a coffee or a trip to the shops or something. They know i will let them.

Maybe even i see it as not important work.

I am, like, so messed up :)

BTW i don't have to same problem when i am hand writing stuff. I like it. But the material is so complex i couldn't do it without the laptop. I can't imagine how people use to keep track of everything before computers!!
