Babysitting Tango!


Ok, so I know this will sound absurd, and I don't want to rope anyone into this, but I have an idea. On my days off, I struggle a bit with actually sitting down and writing and working on things writing related.

There's always so much to do on my days off and I get easily distracted by shiny things. I was working on a project that I wanted to give myself until the end of the month to do.

That is Saturday.

It's not done.

I do well at crunch time but I'm trying to get the project done before it's actually "due" and well my mind just isn't operating with this.

My only other day off is tomorrow, but I'd be willing to give myself until Sunday to get this project done, at least to the point of just needing edited.

Looking for someone I have to answer to about my progress tomorrow. Someone to keep tabs on me. Someone who will keep me on track.

Can't I do this myself, you ask? Well, sure, but that is no fun and I know me and can manipulate myself well.

Really, just want someone to say hey, what have you gotten done? And I will answer honestly and actually WORK and get it done because I will not embarrass myself to a person I hardly know and fib and say "Oh, yeah, it's done blah blah blah." At least not conscioulsy can I do this.

I am sincere about this totally but feel as though I've gone off the deep end LOL :punk:
