anti-procrastination

So, for once, I am trying to start on my school stuff earlier than needed, to avoid the last-minute crunch. Somehow, the fact that one of my prefessors has VERY elastic due dates seems to make it worse (if there's no real due date, how do you know when to start panicking?).
Anyway, I asked him Tuesday if he had any ideas for my final paper/project in the advanced cataloging class. He evidently won't just give you one, but will help adjust an idea you already have. I said I had no clue whatsoever, and he said, "Well, what irritates you the most [about cataloging]?" And out of nowhere, I said the Western European/Judeo-Christian bias of the Dewey Decimal system.
So, for my final project, I get to reallocate the Dewey 200s (religion), and defend my choices. I think I'll actually find this entertaining.
Meanwhile, my non-librarian friends are like, this is interesting? How?
