"I can't Procrastinate for Evil. I can only Procrastinate for Nothing"
Is one of my favorite quotes from "Spin Control" another SF book I read this week.
Simon just sent me this article;
Solitaire-y ConfinementWhy we can't stop playing a computerized card game.
I am addicted to solitaire on my phone, that's why Simon sent the article to me. This is going to humiliate me but I am going to say it anyways. At bedtime after I have turned out the lights, I play solitaire on my phone until my eyes start to fall shut. Then I put the phone down and pass out.
Why?? I don't know, I don't even know how it started. I tried this week to do some journaling or just deep breathing exercises and I couldn't sleep I had to go get my solitaire fix and turn off the machine(my brain) in the way it likes to be turned off.
Anyways, the Slate thing comes from a whole issue on Procrastination. It's there for you, should you want it ;) Or just go play solitaire. Again. And again.
