Productive Procrastination

I really should find more things that I do not want to do so I can get more of the things I have been planning done. Take tax filing, for example. As we start on the final week of tax filing, I really should finish it and get it over with. What I just did was to rearrange my living room. Sure, I have been thinking about it for a few weeks now, tired of the old and finding more appealing arrangements. It is not a pressing thing like filing my tax return. As the deadline approaches on filing, rearranging furniture quickly takes on a kind of urgency, a sort of aesthetic desperation. True motivation suddenly urges me to move large pieces of furniture. Even the dust bunnies behind and under everything are singing their songs of siren. I must thank Revenue Canada like Odysseus must have thank Poseidon. Without their inspiration, neither Odi or I would have heard such wonderful songs.
Now that I have rearranged the furniture, what is next? Tree trimming, perhaps, anything but counting T-3's and T-5's.
