Literally or otherwise. I just got done submitting sample columns to the Minnesota Women's Press. Finished writing well before today's deadline, forced myself to let the writing simmer a bit so I could give it a final look and tweak before sending, but when it came to actually getting my butt to the library to make the final edits and actually submit the things, I suddenly started seeing all sorts of other interesting distractions things that would pull me off course into No Risk Comfort Zone Land really really needed doing right then and there.
And then I got to the library and had to very firmly tell myself that I would NOT open the web browser until I had edited my columns and sent the e-mail to the MWP editor.
The deed is done. And now I am rewarding myself with a bit of leisure, and resisting the temptation to log into my e-mail again and check for new mail every thirty seconds.
