8/11: emily dickinson then email

I knew I needed to do some work-related email today, but it's still summer, so I let myself spend a chunk of the morning on an Emily Dickinson project and left the email for the afternoon.  When I finally got to it, it wasn't as formidable as I made it in my mind.  You'd think I'd learn that that's usually the case (but at least this way I experience the happiness each time when the reality is easier than what I imagined?).  Then I got some nice email feedback from colleagues--hurray for internal and external positive reinforcement.
