There must be elections in Russia this Sunday. Because my mail server suddenly became balck-and-white and there is a Big Red Banner that says: "Checking your e-mail? Go vote this Sunday, or Monday you will have nothing to check!"
They published pre-election spam Russians got in their mail boxes: When you are gong to vote, do not forget your ID. When you are there, do not forget to vote. Grrrr... Ok.
Makes perfect sense to me. The number of times I go to get one thing done and end up accomplishing anything but that thing. Glad to see it's not solely an American curse.

I am working on this essay as a way of not doing all of those things. This is the essence of what I call structured procrastination, an amazing strategy I have discovered that converts procrastinators into effective human beings, respected and admired for all that they can accomplish and the good use they make of time.
If to think right about it, all I've ever achieved was only thanks to "not doing something more important".
