1. Start working really long hours.
2. Stay away from Amazon.com.
3. Fall behind on writing the annual Christmas letter. Start stressing about it.
4. Take a really time-involved quilting class that makes you want some serious time apart from your sewing machine & all things fabric-related.
5. Start overbooking social engagements.
6. Remember what retail areas are like during the holiday shopping season.
7. Regularly visit the respective yarn & wood "stashes" and mentally inventory the number of "potential projects" you already own.
8. Commit to daily blog updates.
9. Tell other people about your experiment. Fear the thought of the public shame of giving up 5 days early.
10. Run out the door forgetting your wallet anyway.

Hee hee! I'm not reveling in your pain, really...I'm just laughing because of your prose. That is, you're funny! You're almost there! Keep going!! You can do it!
(For the record, I don't think glasses should count. I mean, it could be DANGEROUS not to have your glasses. No? But I get the total commitment aspect.)
That last one, that's the key...
