This means I got to see my friend Shania perform in a show I also, admittedly, really love….this is something that would've never happened if it wasn't for this crazy thing that's going on right now. (ps unsurprisingly, she was fantastic - and so was the rest of the cast. Little pitch: there's another show there today at 3 Pacific Time, and then a few more next weekend with a different cast...tickets are easy to find on CCPA's site)
College mornings are BRUTAL. You have to wake up early for a class that you don't really want to be in, and then you have to drag yourself through the next few hours of paying attention before finally getting back home.

It’s no good trying to do anything if you don’t know when it needs to happen or you don’t know where you put it after you finished it.
The one good thing about organization is that it DOES get easier (once you find the right system). If you tend to continue to avoid doing it, blame the system, not yourself. A smooth system makes everything so much easier; it’s hard to give up once it’s a habit.
This is when you know you’ve hit organizational gold.
