Too Tired to think. Too tired to move.

It is Saturday. I should be relaxing, chilling out, going to the movies... just doing something that does not fall under the category of work. But that is not what is happening.

Here I am in front of the computer. For at least 4 or 5 hours, I have been trying to motivate myself to do the last little bit of work for this accounting client. I have been losing that battle. I am losing the war.

So what am I to do?

One voice inside me says, put it aside. Get some rest and hit it again on Sunday, when you have recharged your batteries. Another voice says that it is maybe an hour's work, and you will be done. My body and my mind say they hold with the former. Enough is enough. Working five and a half days a week is enough! Stop working and rest.

So what should I do?

To the title of this piece, let me add... too tired to make a decision. I will pull a Scarlett O'Hara.. you know: "Tomorrow is another day." In this case, procrastination seems to be a perfectly logical thing to pursue and that is exactly what I will do.

Decision made.
