arson will probably laugh, but I think so. And I have this feeling that, if I can just get enough rubbermaid bins and crates, I'll be organized by osmosis.
I have *wonderful* ideas for organizing everything. Now if only I had the time.
2.Do you keep some type of planner, organizer, calendar, etc. with you, and do you use it regularly?
Yeah. I've got a Visor that I mostly use for lists, and a daybook that came with my latest backpack that I will start using as soon as I find the motivation to rewrite my address book again.
3.Would you say that your desk is organized right now?
Quite. I've got a book bin, craft bin and general stuff bin next to the wall and only a few things (besides the 'puter) on the desk itself. (The bins are organized as well. *grin*)
4.Do you alphabetize CDs, books, and DVDs, or does it not matter?
When I've got the room, I generally alphabetize the CDs, 'cause I have so many, in so many genres, that its really the only way to find something quickly.
I try to have sections for my books, space allowing (especially reference, though, if one has enough conversations, *everything* is reference), but I usually end up just trying to make sure that all the books by a particular author are together and have done with it.
5.What's the hardest thing you've ever had to organize?
Sam. Well, her stuff. She has this habit of wanting to *play* with her stuff and has no respect at all for my organizational skills. *grin*

Heeeeeelllllppppp!
May. 9th, 2003 09:03 amMy stepfather's birthday has passed, but that's of no consequence, 'cause I'm hardly ever on time with a present.
Problem is, I forgot it was coming up at all, and now I can't find the cd I wanted to get him. And I can't remember enough about it to find it.
Its a tribute cd to Edgar Allen Poe (one of his veryfavorite writers)...I believe the tracks are his poems as songs, but, again, I can't remember.
Any help...a title...a url...a bit of song I could google to find the cd title and a url would be *most* appreciated.
There's no huge rush, as I already missed his birthday, but I would like to have his present there *before* we go out to visit in July...'cause I just don't think I'd have room in my suitcase. *grin*
Thanks.
