My new email and RSS routine is efficient... too efficient? I suddenly saved a few hours each day. Instead of spending the extra time on work or books (or both, since my current project is proofing a book for a friend), Iâve been watching boardgame reviews on YouTube and procrastinating.
There is a social component to checking email and RSS, a feeling of âthere are other people out thereâ. Good books can do that too, but thereâs an inertia to that, to shifting my mind over to the bookoverse.
Also, for working I need to be up. Not fun. I value laziness. Leaving bed is failing at life. Being up is the same feeling as when youâre playing a racing video game and youâve got some wheels off the track and youâre trying desperately to right yourself and get on the track before the game catches you and resets you with a time penalty. Youâre like âNooo, Iâm out of my element, everything hurts, what are these things called âbonesâ and âmusclesâ and why do they creak and crack with every breath!â
No, thank you! Back to the perfect life of sobbing inconsolably in bed like God intended.
