I'm going to write a post about...
I’m going to write the second part of my post about slavery. But it’s a long post. And I can’t publish it until I’ve got it right. And I still haven’t gotten it right. And then the day has come and gone and I haven’t written it.
I’m going to write a post about pinboard. It’s my replacement for Evernote. I haven’t used it that much, but so far I like it. But I have this post about slavery that I want to write first. So even though it would be easier to write, I can’t get to it, right now.
I’ve got around 50 web pages saved to Evernote in a notebook called “Blogging” and each one of them deserves its own post. But I can’t get to them because of the slavery post and the pinboard post, and a lot of other posts, all vying for my attention.
That includes a series of posts about waking up. Especially the one about waking up in the dream rather than waking up from the dream. That’s an important one.
And then there’s the one about paying the high cost of learning something new—having an important insight—and then quickly forgetting it.
All these things that I’m going to write posts about. And instead, I write a post about something different. A post about all the posts that I wanted to write and didn’t write.
This post.
