Notice: that may be little dangerous for your sanity

Personally, for some reason I don’t get on well with paper – I’ve had so many diaries that I never used consistently for more than a week, maybe a month… but I know it CAN work that way for some people.

You made a point that it is easier to jot down a phone number than enter it into a PDA or phone. That may be true for you, maybe even true for the majority, but I have gotten so used to my phone it is easier for me to do the thumbwork than to write. I’m a woman, I don’t tend to wear suits, and a pen is not the easiest thing for me to find and wield – especially while travelling (I’ve met the most interesting people out on the street, in the supermarket, etc) – or at a social event.

I’ve figured out I am a green belt about to marry a die-hard orange belt my fiance has another type of time-challenge I haven’t seen mentioned here. mail. i mean real mail, not email. Not just junk mail, but magazines he has ordered (and even paid for) and that he really seems to want to read. They pile up on the counters in the kitchen, unread.

any ideas about how to deal with that?
