I already see one or two things I want to fill... if they're still free once I get to reward myself by finishing this darn monster, oh my dog.

Well my productivity level just dropped to 0. Damn.

It's so hard to resist, I know! XD

Ooh, honey, if you can wait, I can send you a finished copy soon! I think there will end up being about 20k more than what I first sent you and I wouldn't want you to have to rifle through finding all the new parts. <3

And I never get tired of that icon of yours (happy sigh).

O_O

20k more

OMFG



THIS IS BETTER THEN CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!

*waits*


I looked so hard for a decent Adam icon and this is all I could find that matched my ridiculously picky icon tastes, I adore it

So adorable, Becky! <333 And I'm so relieved that you're enjoying it! I'm sorry it's taken this long (I feel so terrible!), there were so many characters, then the ending's threatened to morph on me and I'm still trying to understand what the universe is trying to communicate. ^^;

BUT SOON. SOON YOU WILL HAVE IT. (Please cooperate, muse.)

I approve of these standards and I agree: Adam icons are ridiculously hard to find.

Noooooo, don't tempt me. *resists*

I'm only a fifth of the way through with [livejournal.com profile] au_bigbang (word count wise. I can't judge for story wise as it keeps adding things while I'm writing.) I must finish.

Hmmm, this will be a treat if I reach my goal of 7k on fic today, yes? yes. :D

<333

That is a great idea and one I'm also exercising, bb, look at it like it's a treat to reward yourself with when you reach that goal! You can do it! :D

It helps. Need to add 7k to a fic? What better incentive to get it done than an awesome prompt meme? :D

Ooh, that seems like a meme tailor made for me and my love of side-characters/guest-stars, but I shouldn't get distracted! I shouldn't! *scampers off*

-_-

XD Come on, willpower! It seems to be that perfect season of the year when we all need this break but we're all still wrapped up w/ prior commitments.

You know me and my lack of willpower...and small attention span. xDD

Hahaha! I'm like those dogs in UP, I'll be listening to you one minute, but then: squirrel!

Apparently a Stanford study conducted on 100 students found that multitaskers are more prone to actually achieve less because their minds are engaging w/ so many streams of information (e.g. listening to music while checking emails though the TV is going in the background and carrying on a conversation while social media is streaming in another window) and they have more problems w/ memory recall because they're constantly giving attention to irrelevant input. I'm not convinced this is a statistically significant sample, but it would definitely explain me! The moral of the story is to do less in order to achieve more and now I don't feel so bad that I can't multitask anymore! XD

That explains SO MUCH about my faulty memory and why I always feel like nothing gets done. Well, that does it, I'm going to strive to be less productive from now on, lol. Aim low to avoid disappointment, they always say. :P

Lol that's not what I meant! XD Do fewer thing simultaneously and productivity will be yours! Is the theory.

Oh, okay, I get it now. ^^; Anyway, it's good advice for me. I always try to do everything together to finish faster and it hasn't been too successful as of yet.

I've found this really works for me. Unless I'm wordwarring, when I write, edit, or read anything, I log out of twitter and email. There's this sense that we're missing out if we don't have such things on all the time, but for me personally, you can catch up on virtually anything after the fact if it's important enough. Like the fact you filled Adam/Godstiel, omc, I didn't know, but I can read now through lunch. See? The theory works! :D

The biggest obstacle for me, I think, is LJ, because I love reading all the entries, especially fic, on my flist. I actually avoided it today, though, and I got another 1k done in a snap! Maybe there is something to this theory. :D
