Playing Catch Up
Slowly recovering from an illness that's kept me flat out for the better part of a week, I am facing a two-foot stack of newspapers and journals, a short stack of books I'd meant to start, and about 1,000 unread items in my newsreader...not to mention the actual work I'm backed up on.
While I know I could mark all my RSS feeds as read, toss the old papers and journals into the recycle bin, and move the books over to my already embarassingly large "someday" pile, this would be at odds with my obsessive-compulsive nature ... Instead I'll be playing catch up this week, using the experience as an opportunity to reflect on whether or not there really is such a thing as "too much information"...
