Productiveness

I sit here pondering the idea of being productive. Brian says he has been extremely productive and I would have to agree. I have also had an exceedingly productive day. I woke up late, but then went for a run around my neighborhood, cleaned my entire room of old stuff and am now fitting in all the stuff I care about from my room at school. Productive, yes. But, I really should start that paper that I have to write before leaving for Ireland. So, I wonder, is it really being productive to have gotten all this done, when something of greater priority still sits and gains dust? Procrastination or productiveness? This is the question I lay on the table.

Procrastination and productiveness have never been, and never will be, mutually exclusive concepts.

Words to live by (or "Words by which to live," if you care that much).

Excellent Amy: your nonterminal prepositions make the day cleave like butter.

Caryn, don't ponder so long that your procrastinative pondering precludes productivity.
