All hail organization.

I slept until after 1:00 today (or, technically yesterday, now), but I do not feel guilty as today (yesterday) was Spring-Cleaning-that's-not-really-Spring-Cleaning-b/c-it's-not-spring day.

I finally cleared my closet and drawers of all the summer/spring clothes (which makes me sound like such a slacker, but really, here in the south I still need those clothes until December) and packed them away, tossed out a ton of old papers I didn't realize I'd kept and really didn't need (anyone else keep old school papers because at the time they look like they contain knowledge you'd want to have on hand if you forget it, but really, they don't have anything you couldn't find in the textbooks you saved, so all you're doing is adding to the clutter?), and tackled my bookshelves. Still have stacks of books on the floor, but at least they're a bit neater.

Bought one of those hanging file folder organizer case thingies, and have already filled it up. Handy little gadgets, those.

What I really need is a good way to store all my research. I mean, what can one do with hundreds of pages of photocopied journal articles on infanticide, sea horses and pipefish, and slave-making ants?

I feel quite accomplished now. I've been up all night, and switching back to my usual day schedule after this will suck, but oh well, c'est la vie.

Also, a big welcome to windrose and yunitsa!
