It tends to be one of the first things to pile up when things get on top of me, so I'm pleased to be able to say that I have once again achieved the pleasant state of having Nothing Left to Wash Up.

What seems to be working at the moment is to do the washing up first thing in the morning, when I wander into the kitchen to get a glass of water and get started on breakfast.

Actually, that seems to be the best way to get anything done that I'm procrastinating on: get on it first thing in the morning, before I have time to distract myself with anything else. And by "anything else", I mainly mean "Tumblr and blogs and such". I might have to try banning myself from social media in the mornings, but the problem with that is that the reason I started catching up on all my social media in the mornings was to stop myself doing it at night, when I would get just as distracted and ruin my sleep patterns. Hmm. This is going to require further thought.

Heh, well, one more thing achieved is one more thing achieved? Good luck with working out the rest.

Dishes are my nemesis too. Wait. Dishes and social media. Among my nemeses are...

I'll come in again.

The trick is to find out what a good 'distraction time' is. I've currently got into the habit of doing the dishes last thing at night so I don't come into a kitchen with a sink full of dirty dishes.

I tend to do the dishes last thing at night, but that tends to be about 3am...

I'm doing my best to make this before 1am at the latest (but RPG night makes it more difficult).
