I just reference your post as a link in my own for today: it is Fight Procrastination Day (apparently--on a Saturday, too!). I am doing my best by writing an unplanned blog entry. So, uh, thanks?

I love the term "misdirected industru=iousness"--sounds like a term my chair would love to use for me, but I don't think I'll share it with him. And thanks for the link to Perry, as well.

Is my writing this hopefully interesting and illuminating (and certainly self-referential) response to a blog post in the middle of my working day industrious or just lazy?

Will, thanks for passing along the link to John's essay. I hadn't seen it, and suspect it might just change my life, eventually.

YOU might not be lazy, but many of us are. I procrastinate. Not to get something else done, but so I don't have to do anything at all, except, maybe play MarioKart on the wii, or take a nap.

Doing things you have to do sucks, and so we minus you put them off until they absolutely can't be put off any longer. Then we do them, bitterly, then get back to our regular, lazy, super awesome lives.
