Bad night, busy day

I slept very poorly last night -- no doubt due to late night coffee, pain, and many things on my mind.  I'm feeling a bit like Boromir must have felt after being tossed by the cave troll!

But there's not time for naps just yet, I've got things to do.  And coffee to drink so I can wake up enough to do them!

Just for fun, and because we used to do Flashback Friday here at LJ, I decided to check and see what I posted on this date last year.  Amazingly enough, it's apporpriate for today!

Last year in May I was dealing with the List of Doom.  ;-)  Here's what I had to say....

I have an unbelievable amount of stuff to take care of today. I know I won't be able to do it all, so I am making a prioritized list. The first thing on my list will be to look at my list and not get sidetracked by doing things not on the list!  ... There are [many] duties that ought to be considered -- but I can only include things on my list that won't affect my momentum, otherwise I'll be distracted and not get anything done enough to call it done. That's the hard part about multitasking -- I can do lots of things at once, but sometimes those things have to be done well!

Ah, well -- more coffee is in order, I think, to help me write my List of Doom.

Speaking of Lists of Doom...

Seduction of the Ring

The strength, the weapon
The needs of the valiant;
Be the Ring your strength,
Your weapon --
Go to victory

Well, coffee in hand, I go forth to victory over my List of Doom... I hope!
