Hey, better late than never! The Friday Five<\/a>:<\/p>\n

1. Would you consider yourself an organized person? Why or why not?<\/b>
\nOh hell yes! Sometimes to the point of being anal, but usually just at the edge. I take immense pleasure in reorganizing our linen closet at least once a month. Clutter really annoys me, and so does having minimal storage space, so I reorganize frequently to keep all the “stuff” under control.<\/p>\n

2. Do you keep some type of planner, organizer, calendar, etc. with you, and do you use it regularly?<\/b>
\nI write lists, daily. Grocery lists, to do lists, you name it. I am the list queen. I write reminder emails at work and send them to my home address. I use Outlook at work to remind me of important dates.<\/p>\n

3. Would you say that your desk is organized right now?<\/b>
\nMostly. There are a few small piles on it, but it usually looks good. I do not like a lot of things sitting on the top of my desk; that’s why I have a shelf that runs along the bottom. Out of sight, out of mind. But that is organized too, of course.<\/p>\n

4. Do you alphabetize CDs, books, and DVDs, or does it not matter?<\/b>
\nDefinitely. The cds are alphabetized first by artist, then by title. The dvds are alphabetized by title as well. I don’t own many books, so they’re just in size order. I read a lot, but borrow from the library instead of spending the money. <\/p>\n

5. What’s the hardest thing you’ve ever had to organize?<\/b>
\nDefinitely my digital photos. I was using ACDSee’s database function to label them all. I had done all of 2003, most of 2002, and then I got this new hard drive where I installed Windows XP and all the programs I use, including a newer version of ACDSee and what did I learn? Well apparently the database I created cannot be seen by the new version. I also learned, by digging around in the help files, that if you move a photo from it’s original folder, it loses its database properties as well. Well, fuck me. All that work for nothing. So I guess I’ll stick to my way of filing and hope I can find shit when I need it. I’m thinking the best way to go is create an Excel spreadsheet with keywords that reference back to the directory where each photo is stored. If you have a better suggestion, I’m all ears.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
