well, part of the day i was at the dentist.

today i worked from home and you may think this is a euphemism for "did the laundry" but i actually got a lot of work done. i like having a work from home day every once in a while. if there's something solid that i can work on, something measurable. most days, my work is more about communication, facilitating other peoples's work, but occassionally i have a concrete, discrete "project" that i can tackle and be done with it. tailor-made for working at home. something about being at the office encourages a bit of slacking in a way that being at home does not. it's ironic, i guess, that i feel more consciensious [sp?!] at home, where no one's watching. it's like, if i am at the office, that counts for some part of the effort and when i am at home i have to make up for that by putting more effort into the work. occassionally i imagine i'd like to work at home fulltime, but then i am not sure i want to keep up this level of productivity. don't want to set folks's expectations too high and box myself into the corner of fulfilling them.
