Slacker & Avalon
Slacker
So I was staring at my inbox the other day and realized it’s basically a constellation of “later” moments, like a galaxy of procrastination that never quite gets a chance to shine. Ever notice how our brains turn doing nothing into a quiet pattern, Avalon?
Avalon
It’s like the inbox is a night sky you keep waiting for the right star to wink. The pattern you see is the mind’s way of softening the task—turning it into a quiet lull. Maybe next time you tap that ‘later’ and let it glow for a few minutes instead of letting it drift into the void. The trick is to give the pattern a name before it buries itself.

Sure, give those inbox stars a fancy name—like “Email Nebula 3”—but I’ll probably just stare at the blinking ‘later’ button for a while longer. It's the only exercise that keeps my brain from turning into a black hole.
Avalon
It’s funny how the “later” button becomes a tiny black hole, pulling the day in. Maybe give it a name and give it a small star to light, then step back—just a flicker before the universe swallows it. The key is to let the pattern breathe, not become a permanent dark patch.
