last week or whenever that was that rob was here & he helped me find an sftp client, he was freaked out about my having so much crap all over my desktop. "it's so unlike you! actually, i kind of like it." it is unlike me. i'm horrible about creating ten million folders with stupid names, but it's like there's order in my chaos. you know, i'm one of those people - it's a mess, but i know where stuff is. normally, though, i keep my desktop pretty free of clutter. nothing stays there very long. i either do what i'm gonna do with it and trash it, or i end up storing it on a drive somewhere so i can find it later. right now i must have at least 15 folders on the desktop along with a ton of loose files. i mean, crap is everywhere. it's ridiculous.

so i got to thinking about this, though, and now it sort of makes sense. ever since last summer (read: the frigging flood), i've been pretty much living out of boxes. for the most part i did a pretty organized packing job, so stuff that belongs together was packed together. i had no idea what was in each box, though, so whenever i wanted something, i'd have to go digging through box after box until i found the right one. i'm pretty sure that living like this would normally drive me insane, but i haven't really had much choice in the matter. i had to live like this, so i suppose i just learned to manage. somehow that's transferred to the way i use my computer as well. my desktop has become a symbol of my current state of being - completely disorganized.
