Too Much To Do

fauxkloreI hate how far behind I am on everything.
I did get out and run some errands yesterday. I needed to deposit a check at a credit union shared branch. Since that's close to the Oakton post office, I mailed about half of my holiday cards. (I am still working on writing the rest of them.) I also picked up prescription refills. Normally, I just get the refills by mail, but I was concerned that wouldn’t be timely enough with the holiday season.
In the course of attempting to clear a few things off my dining room table today, I discovered that I had missed the due date on my real estate taxes. I’ve now paid them on-line, but I had to add on an annoying fee. It’s my own fault, of course, but I hate that I’ve been so disorganized.
I’m also scouring my email trying to figure out what date I bought a particularly theatre ticket for. It’s not until late March, but I need to avoid creating schedule conflicts. This has prompted me to attempt to clear out a bunch of old email, which is, alas, going to be a lengthy process. (And, no, I haven’t found the theatre ticket yet.)
I still have tomorrow to get things done, at least until early evening when I’m telling a story.
Also, I lucked out and got a readers slot at the Moby Dick Marathon in New Bedford. If you want to hear me, I’ve got 10:15 to 10:20 p.m. on Saturday (January 3rd). The whole marathon is live streamed on YouTube and you can watch it afterwards at your convenience.
