Sometime in January, if I remember correctly, I developed an addiction involving Dungeons and Dragons Online, which is a multiplayer online version of the fantasy role playing game. If you don't know what I'm talking about, imagine a virtual world where people from all over the world log on and gang up on unsuspecting monsters. My addiction with this game has recently had (another) flare-up, to the point where I got absolutely nothing done for weeks except for pissing off a whole bunch of virtual monsters.

Yesterday, I found an ingenious way to turn the addiction into a source of unlimited productivity. For each day, I now make a To-Do list. And my rule is, until it all gets done, no Dungeons and Dragons. The result is incredible! - I have gotten more things done in the past two days than I have in the past month. And now, whenever I think of something that I should do, I just mark it down for one of the upcoming days, and I know it will get done! It's like magic!!! As long as this addiction keeps working, I can use it to fuel the rest of my life!

So, the last thing on my list for the day was updating my blog. And hey, it's done! OK, off to D&D land :-) I'll try to do this once a week from now on.
