This morning I came across a fascinating article about procrastination, something with which I think every graduate student is on first-name basis.
It’s called Later: What We Can Learn from Procrastination, by James Surowiecki in The New Yorker, and as a four-page article, it’s also a great procrastination tool.
Check it out!
My favorite line: “Victor Hugo would write naked and tell his valet to hide his clothes so that he’d be unable to go outside when he was supposed to be writing.”
Oh Victor.

The author of Snark on the Side is not your average run-of-the-millennial generation.
Jen is a contradiction in terms: a graceful klutz, a smart blond, a math-savvy English degree-holder, a southern liberal, and an adult amateur equestrian who doesn’t match her saddle pads.
Snark on the Side is a work in progress, born out of years of rambling email newsletters and anthropomorphized Christmas letters, small town observations, and the ever-present irony of pursuing a career with a degree in English literature.
Thanks for visiting!
