I tend to hang on to all manner of objects for far too long, thinking I may need them some day, for something. Now I’m making a sincere effort to rid my desk, mailbox, and life of every piece of paper that pops up, unless I really think I’ll need it in the future. It feels great to toss newsletters and messages in the recycle bin as soon as I’ve read them.

I don’t know how or when – or where – this will happen. Or if it’s really possible. Plus, people are so individual. Which guy’s eyes would I want to see through? I’m getting flashes of Being John Malkovich now…
