Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I have that book! I enjoyed it.
It sounds like a simple thing but it really works. Write EVERYTHING down, from "buy brown belt that fits" to "start chapter 4 of new book" to "start calling mom more." For as long as the list is current your mind will buzz less with liminal reminders.
This is what I started doing this week, for work. Which is good, because it has been CRAZY. Unfortunately, in 3 days, I have 19 items and only 7.5 crossed off. But that's the crazy.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I have that book too! It's pretty good, though not phenomenal. Interesting, though.

Lives of the Monster Dogs
Disappointed me but now I don't remember why. I expected it to be a lot better than it was.

Oh, thank god. I don't have to flip out and quit my job now.
I just need to document in case this crap ever happens again. That, I can do.
yay scrappy!

The idea isn't always to worry about how many you get crossed off. It's really to free up the brain space that is spent picking at you, reminding you to do X thing all the time.
My lists aren't organized at all except by date. Then on occasion, I go back and I read through and see what I have done and haven't.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. For the first time in my life, I just got an email from somebody I graduated high school with. Haven't talked to her since graduation. She's asking me if I'm going to our 25th reunion this year.
Huh. I had a crush on her back in 9th grade. That was 28 years ago....
