I'm disappointed that I can't have the same keyword on two different userpics. For some reason, I thought you could, and when you post using that keyword, LJ would choose one at random. It turns out, LJ chooses one at random to keep that keyword, and deletes that keyword from the other.

on organization
Feb. 19th, 2005 11:53 pmI'm wired for organization. Sort of. I need it. I don't always do it. Actually, it's about efficiency. I must keep my work spaces organized so I can function. For the most part they are kept so. Some places that should be workspaces are storage spaces, so are not kept tidy.
In some areas, efficiency loses out to aesthetics. Like the bedroom. I like to have my clothes out on top of the dresser, for easy access. I hate searching through drawers looking for a certain pair of pants or a sweater. Although the bedroom often looks like that, it's not supposed to, because it looks messy.
But back to the organizing... I need it organized, but it's tough keeping it that way. You have to keep at it. As soon as you let it slide, you can't get it back - not without a huge struggle. I bring a stack of papers back to the office from the kitchen, file some, discard others, and drop the last few on my desk... where they stay. *sigh* The toughest part, for me, is finding a place for everything. I can get things where they belong, if they have a place to belong in. Currently, things that don't have a place end up in a pile or another in the office, or in a pile or another in the basement. There are too many piles that never get cleaned up because there's no place to clean them to.
