Friday

[rolanni]

And not just any Friday, but the Friday before "fall break"! Which means I had my choice of prime parking places this morning.

Saw one of the maintenance folks on my way up to the office. "Looking forward to your vacation?" they asked.

And we both laughed.

It's a bright and shiny day here in the neighborhood. I've got some errands to run around campus a little later, which will be pleasant. My desk is clear for the moment, though I expect to be doing some data entry a little later, when the mail hits. Otherwise, it looks to be a quiet day.

Which is fine.

I made my various to-do lists* yesterday and own myself a little intimated by the sheer mass of stuff that needs doing, on all fronts. I mean, really, some of these lists have sub-lists. To-do lists usually make me feel like an utter slug, just frittering time away instead of doing Needful Things, and this one's a doozy. Maybe if I do one thing from each section every day until, oh, 2015, I'll get it all finished?

It's a plan.

How do you manage your to-do lists? Who's caught up?

to do

[kalilama.livejournal.com]

I write to do lists and then never look at them again until weeks later and am then charmed by how many things I actually did without remembering they were on the list. I guess writing the list down somehow organizes my brain. And of course there are some things that just keep getting moved from list to list and I never do them because I didn't want to in the first place. :-)

Then there's procrastination, which is why I am sitting here writing this instead of finishing the report that is due to NSF soon...like today.
