I waste more time reading pointless news or surfing pointless blogs (I don’t mean yours, Kyle) because I can’t decide which option to pursue during my free time.

So here I am tonight. Do I revive a writing project, read Sailhamer, read Piper, read Ryrie, read Sproul (all books in progress, some shelved for a while), study Spanish, work on Sunday’s sermon, or go read pointless news and blogs?

I suppose I could engage in the Great American Tradition and waste the time in other ways: tv shows and movies. Decisions, decisions.

Update: I left off the pièce de résistance of time wasting: playing pointless games on my iPhone.
