Organizational Skills
08/19/2008It’s 4:12 am, Tuesday morning and I just fed the boy so this is a rapid fire, stream of consciousness post because I need some sleep for tomorrow, I mean today. I’m still trying to get a grip on this whole new life, scheduling everything around my son’s schedule thing. It ain’t easy but you knew that already. I didn’t I guess. I mean, I knew in the abstract that I would be busier and time would be tighter but I never knew I would be flexing these organizational muscles that not only I didn’t know I had but found out I’m really a mess in the this department. One answer: iCal. Learn it, know it, live it.
iCal is a calendar app that comes with all Macs including this new MacBook that I saved up for and purchased recently. New Macs are cool. They just run and run their little Intel processors in a way that your old beaten up iBook couldn’t. Anyway, iCal rules my life now. It is my life. Boy needs to go to the pediatrician. Set-up an iCal reminder. Bresson double-feature at the Film Forum that I probably won’t get to see. Set it up in iCal. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by all of the appointments you need to keep. iCal…you get it.
Hey, this is the best I could come up with at 4:12 am. Did you want to look at Walter Matthau’s face below for another two weeks?
