Afternoon ADD Alert

I'm supposed to be proofreading transcripts.  We have no court today, and it's the perfect opportunity to get some proofreading done.  The transcripts are due on an appeal by March 4th (oh, I'll make the deadline) and I shouldn't be dragging my feet...

But.

I'm bored.

My mind won't stay focused on the task at hand.  It keeps wandering in a million different directions...

I WANT TO GO WINDOW SHOPPING.

I WANT TO  SEARCH FOR NUTRITIOUS RECIPES.
