Distractions

In research, I am finding my biggest problems are inability to make decisions and distractions. I need to develop some criteria for decisions like Katydid hasn't responded in two days...next victim. I simply have too many friends. This is wonderful and I love it. However, I am always being invited to parties and concerts or just to chat. How can I decline? This is totally opposite to my RL. When I return from work, I lock myself into my house. Typically, I go out socially only for family events and art gallery events like First Friday. So, I am having too much fun in SL and not progressing fast enough with my stories. I do manage to get them done on time.

I forgot the other problem...I am totally disorganized. I have hundreds of photos and hundreds of documents. I think I will remember information so I don't write it down. Then, a green engineer IMs me with notecards and I have no idea what I wanted from him. But, he seems like a really interesting guy. Maybe he'll forgive me for not remembering.

My curiosity always sidetracks me. On Thursday, while I was chasing Metacard leads, I bumped into Shockwave Snowbear in an optic store. I was in a crazy mood, because everyone seemed to be ignoring my attempts to start conversation. I put on my chimera and tried to start a dance party, but people just scooted to the other side of the room. Shockwave was the only one who talked to me. Perhaps he was bored.
