Warmonger

4/5/10 Old documents, recycled

Made further progress on my school office today. Downsizing is a war that must be waged on two fronts: home and office. I feel like France, and I'm about to start digging trenches.

My big office file purge last month took care of a lot of the big guns, but a few shots are left to be fired. I had set aside a few files that I couldn't just throw out, since some documents needed to be preserved.

This afternoon, during my lunch break, I went through those files and pulled out all the duplicate and unnecessary pulp. In battle you've got to drop extra weight whenever possible. I was left with a few streamlined files that took up 1/3 the space they previously had.

I'm calling it a small victory.
