Totally productive and stuff

I just dealt with two 6 month old e-mails, am working on a third, and have started dealing with one approaching its second anniversary in my inbox. See, I have this system where my inbox only holds things I actually need to deal with, and I've set myself an informal rule of leaving no more than 10 messages sitting in it at a time. Not, mind you, that I only have 10 things that need dealing with, but I try to delete the things I've admitted I'm never getting around to. For the past long while, though, there've been these 4 emails I was "definitely going to get around to someday".

Total time spent "dealing with" these e-mails: maybe 20 min

Number of times I've looked at them and said "I should really deal with that": at least a hundred

Note to future self: Sometimes it's easier to not be lazy
