The bookcase is done!

So there is this bookcase next to my desk. It is right at my right elbow as I type on my computer. It is the perfect place for the things I need most often. Unfortunately, over the last three years that I have lived here it has become a catch-all for all the miscellaneous junk I didn't know where to put. For quite a while I have wanted to clear it out and make it organized and useful. I even put it at the top of my "To Do" list.

Well, after about a year of procrastination, I finally did it. I took everything out of the bookcase, dusted the shelves, and then sorted all the junk. I threw out or recycled about a third of the stuff, found better places for another third, and replaced the remaining stuff in a logical order. It took about six hours.

I am not sure if I used that project as an excuse to avoid writing. Nevertheless, I do believe I will be able to write more efficiently with all my stuff so well organized.
