I think my brain has exploded

[jelazakazone]

I'm feeling all flaily and full of things to talk about, but I'm not sure I can collect myself properly.

I want to mention (again) this TED Talk by Chimamanda Adichie about The Danger of a Single Story. I am pretty sure I talked about this before, but it came back to me today after talking with different people and reading some different things.  I

Family meetings sound nice.

My to do list:

beta some fic
write some fic
scoop litter box (ugh)
clean kitchen (thoroughly this time)
mess up kitchen by cooking dinner
clean it again

Ewww, too much cat poop on that list for me:) LOL.

LOL though. Your list is much like mine otherwise.

Oh, I didn't write down the stuff I've already done today. Oh well, no matter.

[k_nightfox]

I tell myself it's not any worse than changing diapers but I could be wrong about that...

[jelazakazone]

No, you are right. It's not worse.

Wasn't your list shorter when I read your entry a couple of minutes ago? oO

I just came home from friends. We met in the morning at 11:30h and started backing. We finished at 18:30h although we had plenty of dow left:)

Anyway... I have some homemade cookies now. Because sadly no favourite cookies from my mom because of her knee operation.

What I wanted to say with this: I have a looooong "to do" list as well and did nothing today but it was still fun. Now I'm more tired than I deserve to be after a day with only backing:)

[jelazakazone]

Heh. Yeah. I added some of the stuff I already did:)

You were baking from 11:30 to 6:30? Wow. That's some dedication! mmmm.

LOL. Yeah, some days are like that, but you are full of good spirits now.

[dunderklumpen]

Nja... we were talking, drinking and had about 1 hour of lunch but the rest was backing. Although we were 8 people and everybody got his/her turn:) It was more important to have some fun time together. That we had cookies in the end was a nice side-effect.

[jelazakazone]

See, it was a perfect day then! Some days are meant to be like that. Enjoy and don't feel guilty. <3

You sound awesomely organized. I admire that.

[jelazakazone]

::hugs::

LOL. I just give you an appearance of organization. I'm like a little hamster running wild. I am so unfocused, it's not funny. I did make good progress on this list today though. Posting lists is helpful for me.

[47eleven]

I love lists too. Especially when you can tick and cross. It does give you a sense of accomplishment

[jelazakazone]

I don't normally do lists, but when the list has more than about five items, it's good for me to write it down.

DH is very much a list person. He swears by them.
