Thinking about what I'll do tomorrow if I get snowed in, and for a fleeting moment I thought I should organize my closets. Once or twice a year I get to thinking that it would be a good idea to go through and create a place for everything and put everything in its place, and I actually start to get stressed out over finding time to do this.

This time I said to myself, "Self, you don't have time to clean your closets. Even if you did, you wouldn't have time to stand there every time you put away laundry or change shoes and sort everything into its proper place. And even if you did, you've got about a hundred more important things on which to spend the time, about a dozen of which immediately spring to mind. Besides that, we just don't want to. Closet cleaning sucks, and we're tired. We'd rather watch reruns of 'Buffy' and play fetch with our impossibly cute little dog."

So there will be no organizing of closets at my place this year.
