Boredom and Non-Productivity, related?

I'm bored, and avoiding practicing violin. Not sure why. I actually started this week's practicing on Saturday, meaning I could practice 5 days. I skipped Tuesday, so it's just 4 days like the last two weeks, but I'm slowly improving. My lady I talk to and I had an interesting chat today. She's a grad student, and I am seriously considering becoming one. It's a scary thing, more work than undergraduate school, apparently. Then there's that thesis business. I have no real doubt that I could do it. School is school. I just am a helpless procrastinator who has never really learned why researching schools is fun.

Yeah, I'm rambling to avoid work. Usually talking about it helps. Some days it (meaning practice, homework, whatever) isn't fun or something you want to do, it's just something you get a bit of satisfaction from making yourself do.

I guess I'll go try now.

P.S. The swatch is going well. Still love the yarn. Knitting group tomorrow!
