"I have an advanced degree in procrastination and another one in paranoia" - Joanne Harris
This is a very carefully chosen quote. Why, you ask? Because I currently have two reviews to write, a book haul that I’ve been meaning to do for months and the pile just keeps growing as I keep putting it off, a meal to cook, a room to clean, two tests to take, two interviews to transcribe, one assignment to finish and a pile of dishes to wash. What am I doing instead? Sitting in bed looking for quotes on procrastination by an author whose name starts with J, so that I can write this post about procrastination while procrastinating. And that is why I too, have an advanced degree in procrastination.
We’ll talk about the paranoia another time.
