At 5:30 p.m. on a recent night, I had difficult decisions to make. Should I:
A) Sit on the couch with my feet up on the coffee table, playing the mildly addictive game Block Champ on my cellphone?
B) Fold three loads of laundry?
C) Cook dinner for my husband and daughter, who were due home in half an hour?
I wanted to do A, even though B was becoming crucial, as we were all out of underwear.
