Apologies for the duplication in posting, but felt it necessary to cross-post it here as well. And further proof that I'm determined to follow this schedule: I bought a whiteboard with a month matrix on it that's mere inches from my monitor so I don't ignore it:

Thanks! Of course, I have the feeling that I may fail spectacularly at following this, but it's worth a try--at least I'm going in prepared!
