To do or not to do. That is the question.

When chaos characterizes me and I find myself endlessly scribbling away mile-long to-do lists, I have the overwhelming temptation to rebel by doing NOTHING. It's fool proof. I get paralyzed by options, requirements, assignments, expectations.... Here are somethings that I should be doing:

-packing for a Labor Day weekend away (I'm with Kevin McAllister on this one. "You mean I have to pack my own suitcase?")

-planning for the next couple of events coming up at work

-transcribing two 3o min (+) long interviews. (bleh)

- catching up on emails and reading the bajillion entries on my Google Reader

-cleaning my room

- organizing my life

Instead, I'm:

-reading home decor blogs

-craiglisting

-making dinner plans

Instead, I'm doing this. Gloria Steinem once said, "Writing is the only thing that when I do it, I don't feel like I should be doing something else." Amen, sister. Though the world and its demands awaits me on the other side of my final punctuation mark, I chose to lose myself in this now.
