Getting to Empty.

Thank you, David Allen. Thank you, Merlin Mann.

(Last night I reclaimed about 14 square feet of my floor from clutter, discovered I had a desk underneath all my piles of stuff, organized the said stuff in over a dozen different (labeled) folders, filled up two grocery shopping bags worth of papers to be recycled, and one garbage bag full of trash. I couldn't believe it.)

14 square feet, huh? You're my hero! Something on the list to do for this weekend.

Hey, 43 folders!

That's where I discovered my amazing Hipster PDA . I remember everyone talking about David Allen's book in relation to this handy device. Maybe I should read it (rather than just ducking people to whom I owe book reviews when I see them in the hall).
