Purged a bunch of old check duplicates tonight (and briefly killed my shredder while doing so.)
It's frustrating because I know I'm making progress at cleaning out all the little nooks and crannies where stuff has been accumulating for the past five years but when I look around the apartment it isn't looking that much better. In fact it looks a lot worse since more stuff has been pulled out and piled up so it can be sorted and (hopefully) eliminated. Needing to take out the trash and recycling more frequently is at least one good sign though.
Hopefully I'll be at the 1pm showing of Bubba Ho-Tep at the Uptown on Saturday.
