Top 5 procrastination techniques of the day:
#1 - Play useless games on the internet.
Catch flies with chopsticks at

Attempt #1: 3 flies
Attempt #2: 8 flies
Attempt #3: 25 flies!
#2 - Watch reality tv. Ok, so I didn't use this technique today, but I was very tempted. I thought about it, so some time was wasted there.
#3 - Chat on MSN with friends about reality tv shows that somehow turn us in mindless zombies when we could be doing something more meaningful with our lives.
#4 - Read. You can read anything, really. However, it helps if you've got a good book that you can escape to. A book that makes you
think is a bonus. That way, you are at least using your procrastination time wisely (if this is at all possible). It's certainly much better than watching reality tv like a mindless zombie. It's also better than chatting about reality tv, for that matter.
#5 - Blog! Then, in attempt to edit something, erase your post "by mistake". This means you'll just have to spend some more time re-blogging.
