The art of procrastination

Among the many, many things I don’t know how to do in Ubuntu is set up an equivalent to my Notepad logger, so the experiment is on hold. Results for the time it ran are as follows:

This explains much.

• Work. Fairly obviously: reading papers, coding projects, demonstration duties and so on.
• Sort of work: running backups, fetching food, installing software and other tasks necessary to the completion of a PhD.
• Not work: other than the usual suspects of ‘msn’ and ‘blogging’ there was ‘staring into space’, ‘contemplating feather’*, ‘playing with lojban’ and, of course, ‘setting up logger’.

This will not do.

*it’s a really cool feather, though
