A fine way of procrastinating is listening to the radio. Not only does it distract you from the many tasks you could be doing, it inspires you to look for more information - thus enabling you to postpone things even longer.
My husband and I have recently become avid "Radio National" listners. Some programs I find fascinating, others leave me cold. One that has recently become a favourite to listen to as I drive 20-30 minutes to Swimming lessons on Monday afternoons for Miss K is a show called "Counterpoint" where the views put forward tend to go against the grain of popular opinion.
Yesterday for example, there was a segment entitled "A Perfect Mess" which those of us who struggle with keeping houses, offices etc neat and tidy might find interesting. It's a book that talks about the positives of being messy and cluttered, and for those interested a link to the article and audio can be found at http://www.abc.net.au/rn/counterpoint/stories/2007/1881687.htm The audio starts at approximately 32:50 minutes into the 55 minutes program.
And for those wondering, I grabbed an hours sleep yesterday afternoon, and was in bed by 11:30 last night.
