Procrastination

Welcome to my very first blog post! As many of you know("many" in this case meaning "none") i was supposed to have started posting yesterday but became caught up in the eating of food and overwhelmed by the crushing boredom of staring at a screen and pondering how to go about blogging on the topic of blogging. By skipping yesterday and starting afresh today I have, using my creative prowess, come up with a far better subject than the ironic cliche that is writing about what oneself is doing whilst doing what oneself is writing about.

Procrastination! Similar to faith, procrastination is the "substance of things planned on, the evidence of things not done"( I don't know if i'm allowed to use quote marks when quoting myself but i have done so). It is the utter essence of the human condition! The intention, the yearning, to accomplish things that you need, and even want, to accomplish, yet being incapable of resisting your compromising whims! 

The tragedy of this situation being made worse by the traitorous two-edged blade named Logic! Who at first seems to be the only voice of reason in your fragile psyche. Telling you all about the work that you must do, and how it will benefit you in the long run and how it is best to get it out of the way as soon as possible, before turning on you an offering the very excuses that you require to avoid said work until  the very last second! For Logic is a cruel mistress that you later find out is a mister, and no amount of saltbaths can ever remove the shame(quote) 

And so ends my first blog, i hope you have enjoyed. Stay tuned for tomorrow when we("I") talk about...something else.
