First you procrastinate on the task because it is not a big enough deal to get done urgently. Then you procrastinate on the task because it has become such a big deal that doing it is overwhelming. You would think that this implies a middle point where it is just big enough of a deal to get done easily, however the inherent perversity of the universe's causal geometry prevents this

What's the best work-appropriate "fun fact" about me?

I photographed a cook book once

My face is on a handful of fiction novel covers

The spelling of my name was picked by my sister based on looking the prettiest

As a teen, I changed my handwriting to match Edward's from Twilight

None of these, here's a better idea....

Often, the wise thing must be disguised as silly frivolous dumb shit in order to actually work

so I joined my new job, and while I'm still a bit sad to leave the education space behind, I'm so happy to be back in a techy company (even with all the AI stuff, which frankly, you cannot escape working in tech) and it's so nice to feel like I'm surrounded by smart energetic people. And bonus, I still feel aligned with the product because it's helping people in healthcare and we neeeeed that bby.

I started out taking self portraits today and really really hating them and not recognizing myself. I'm so happy I was able to turn that around in the end.
