QotD: Staying Organized
How do you stay organized?
Submitted by devillibrarian.
I don't.
Oh, I make attempts at it. Vague promises of putting things away and organizing my life. Attempts at keeping lists, schedules, calendars. But in the end the result is always the same: a giant pile of disorganized stuff.
If something's important that I need to remember, I generally write it down which helps me remember even if I lose the sheet of paper it was written on. I use my blackberry to remind me of appointments, otherwise I'd never remember that I had made a haircut last week or need to go to the dentist.
My apartment is generally a mess unless there's company coming over in which case it ranges from almost a mess to sorta clean. Right now, it's sorta clean. Almost. Except for one area.
