The trouble with waiting for something you really don't want to do is that it's hard to find a distraction. You can do all sorts of things to take your mind off it, but, if you're like me, it doesn't really make any difference - the horror is still there and, if you stop concentrating on what you're doing for even a millisecond, it muscles its way into your thoughts. By tomorrow evening, I hope, I'll be wondering why I was so worried, but, until then...
So, rather than trying to write up a piece of research and try to focus my mind on the academic, today I shall go shopping! That always distracts me for a while, even if it's just to think, "They want me to wear what!, this year". And there's always that 18 kg sack of dog food to buy and stagger home with.
