Things to do instead of write:

The internet is made for lists and self exploration. So if you, too, need just one more reason to procrastinate, read on:

1. Think about writing.
2. Read a book about writing.
3. Oh my! How the dishes have stacked up!
4. Should probably do some laundry. And sort it. And organize the closet by color, ROYGBIV style.
5. Fantasize about your long-lost elementary school crush.
6. Try to find crush on Facebook. Despair that “AJ Foster” is such a common name, and 5th grade was so, so long ago.
7. Same re: your long-lost middle school crush / science teacher, because “Tom Davis” might as well be John Doe. (Oh, I said it! Weird thing about this situation: He was probably younger in 1997 than I am now. There’s some fun mental territory to explore.)
8. And since you’re already on Facebook, might as well take time to read that Atlantic article that looked interesting, even though you know it will most likely ignite some liberal rage.
9. Have a snack. Liberal rage makes you hungry.
10. Nap.
11. Snap a photo of your cat, doing same.
12. Go for a run. Knock off those cobwebs.
13. Energy! Clean all the things!
14. Wonder for a minute whether it’s any less annoying and unoriginal to use the phrase “all the things” if one owns and has read Allie Brosh’s book. (No. It’s not.)
15. Phone home.
16. Phone a friend.
17. Wonder for a minute about the fact that these two simple phrases are now ubiquitous pop culture references. Is that something? (No. It’s not.)
18. Netflix.
19. Netflix.
20. Netflix.
21. Think about writing…
