Every once in a while I feel this heartwrenching guilt when I realize I own so much crap. I need to use money more efficiently. Then I also realize the main reason I have so much crap is I accumulate it as time passes without shame. I need to work on that as well. I have so many lists of things I need to go through. Today I begin with clothes. Maybe after that I will tackle boxing old electronics I have been reticent about destroying and send them off to a recycling center. Maybe I will get moving and get at least some of this done.
I started another Ever-Growing To-Do List. There is currently only about 70 items on it, but I feel like a lot of them aren't easily achieved. Maybe I should make it more specific and break down my tasks more. At least then I would have the joy of marking more items off of it, and that's the important part.
I need to do car maintenance today also. And pick up my room. Hmm... I need to vacuum/dust a lot as well. My room is really just a wreck. My whole life is a wreck.
I am currently watching the movie "Antarctica" from 1983. I wonder how historically accurate it is? Hmmmm... Hard to tell, because I seem to have a lot of trouble finding info in English about the Showa exploration of Antarctica. I figure I will need to use a Japanese search engine to do that, but I better increase my kanji before trying or I will just be hopelessly confused.
Once the movie finishes my beautiful list on MDL will be destroyed. Currently I have completely exactly 120 dramas (at 1200 episodes) and 70 movies. There will probably never be such a perfectly round score set again.
Now, to begin my billions of tasks for today... :) After they are done perhaps I can get back to researching service dogs and figuring out how I will make another $200 a month to support getting and raising one without compromising on how much I want to put back into my school funds. Furthermore, my calculations tell me that to get the dog and all the equipment and procedures done usually done in the first year will cost about $1270. If I don't do it, chances are I will never make it to Japan (especially not in the wished for time allotment) and I will certainly never get a good enough paying job to get rid of my school debts.
Anyway, to work I go...
