Usually my distractions are completely unproductive, but on occasion, it's due to an excess of creative ideas luring me away from what I should be doing. This makes my procrastinating slightly more productive, but that much harder to resist.
This time, it was a mermaid. A little paper mermaid hiding behind a waterfall and calling me away from everything I knew I really should be taking care of. So, naturally, I went after the mermaid -
starting with a papercut waterfall...
messing with the lighting...
trying out a fluorescent...
and voila!
Maybe putting off constructive work isn't all bad.
That was a terrible moral of the story. Bad bad bad.
Get back to work, Shana.
