Sounds very much like myself (except that I'm a freelancer, so can procrastinate much easier). I'm still trying to solve it, but I found that some things help: 1. A cardio workout. (Came highly recommended by a dear client of mine, and indeed significantly increases the amount of energy I feel during the day. Does not solve procrastination by itself, but helps with that sleepiness.) 2. Pair programming. (This is a true deal breaker. Maybe we're just not created for solo work, and that's it?) 3. Eating less, and less carbs in particular. (I've been diagnosed with insulin insensibility, and it really shows; I usually get very sleepy after eating.) 4. Doing work you can be proud of, way before the deadline. Not always possible, but when it is, it can keep me going for a bit. Relax, take those extra few hours to make the code clean, polished and well-documented. In my case (and perhaps in yours as well), it's not really about work being boring or not. I had a very exciting side-project of mine, which is now selling on the Mac App Store for great profit, but I started to procrastinate on it after a few months as well. Feel free to email me to talk some more.
