Procrastaccomplishing

Verb.

1. The fine art of accomplishing minor achievements while putting off doing other (more important or pressing) tasks.

Example: Nancy, shamelessly procrastaccomplishing, caught up on her blog, although she herself had proclaimed a family-wide cleaning day.

So why is the world's worst correspondent starting a blog???

I can't handle Facebook--it's information [I use the term loosely] overload and (on the rare occasions that I actually look at it) I end up in complete social networking paralysis--but Emilie has this adorable, funny, thought-provoking, quietly inspiring little blog and I've been itching to try my hand. I used to write stuff. Here's my chance to compose little anecdotes and feel like I'm being communicative even if I am using it as an excuse to sit all alone in a book-lined study. If nothing else, some of those digital pictures of which I am so proud might finally find a home where people will actually see them. And maybe, just maybe, something will be posted here that makes someone laugh, or smile, or cry, or feel a renewed sense of wonder or love or self-worth or perspective...just like Emilie's blog does for me. But probably I'll mostly just talk about food.
