Hah! You're only a few weeks behind, dear Wisteria. I've been battling with something of this sort for several months now! MONTHS! Now what in the world is so difficult about reading a few papers? (I have more than one to go, but still.)

I mean, seriously, how can I let things slide for so long? It is painful. I am so with you. Unfortunately, I don't just feel it on Mondays. I feel it every day, including the weekends.

You'd think, just the reward of having my weekends back would be enough incentive to get this stuff done. But no. I suck. The situation sucks. I don't want to think that I suck. But how is this not totally sucky behavior?

Well, I'm clearly not much help here, but obviously I sympathize.

(And now I'll go look up whether Clear or I is/am/are in the right in our use of empathy vs sympathy.)
