Not too shabby for a mopey day during my time off work but I still feel pretty unproductive. Alas.

^ Sorry to hear you`re feeling low, Astronomer. I think your "to do" list is an excellent tool. On a day when I feel unmotivated I always try to at least take a walk. That way, even if I haven`t achieved much, I`ve celebrated being alive in some way and have looked after my body, so that it`s poised, ready to kick into action on the day that I need it.
In fact, I`m about to follow my own advice and cycle round the city for an hour, so that I don`t waste the entire day on MB!
