Todo lists
Sep. 13th, 2007 11:58 amI realised my todo lists were unsatisfying, apart from anything else, because they were text files where done things got deleted, so you don't get the satisfaction of crossing things off and seeing a vast piece of paper with everything on it done -- you just see that you always have about the same number of things left to do, and feel depressingly like you're getting nowhere.
On the other hand, this month I've been doing pretty well. I got a filing device and stored all my various documents in it (they were previously sorted, and centralised, though there were some outliers, but not terribly easy to just flick through). I eradicated a pile of washing up and have kept my sink empty and shiny. I sorted all of my clothes, found my disappearing socks. I investigated buying a house (not going ahead right now fwiw, but I'm still looking). And started to write a point-and-click adventure game.
