Meta-procastination..

So it's like this, I'm procrastinating my work...
Currently, I'm starting to write an article so it really is like the "writer's blockage".
You start a sentence, then you don't quite find a good way to finish it.. and then you read it all over again and it sound bad. That's when you delete your newly created sentence and you're back at zero again. After two or three iterations of this, you start to look at your e-mail, IM, news; you name it! And then... BANG! You realize that you really ARE procrastinating, you start feeling useless, lazy, cheating on your job and things like that.
This is when "meta-procrastination" starts, you start writing a blog post about your current dilemma, pondering about what are the implications of this, how to eradicate such behavior, etc. But still.. you are there, sitting on your chair, writing this blog post and thinking things like:
Probably post like this are commonplace when regarding procrastination

or even suggesting that probably
Every work on the study of procrastination on all probability was coined by someone procrastinating some other thing

As a matter of fact, I may start to work now.. but first, in order to keep this blog's purpose:

Lavoura Arcaica is a poetic Brazilian movie (note that the posted poster is for the French adv.), full of insightful, heart touching and mind breaking monologues. More than that, it's an intricate verbal puke of a guy whose problems, although most of them mundane, have deeper implications resulting from the whole, so called "perfect", bounding environment. And then, adding the cherry on top of the pie, there is the beautiful, all dancing, provoking mute girl... (hehe.. trying not to spoil any good thing)
Ok.. back to work!
