See, I am actually working all week.
Two new words…
I am an inveterate neologist…
Here are two…
Not sure if I invented this one or am recycling.
administrivia– trivial tasks associated with coordinating or administrating work; also, can be obscure regulations or rules of administrative bureaucracies.
The administrivia soaked up an hour of time.
procrastiduction/procrastivity/procastiduce: When you avoid doing the most important work (writing) by doing other work (emails to students, grading, upgrading CV).
Yes, well, I did not finish my book. But I wasn’t surfing facebook, I was procrastiducing.
