Tidying time

[j4]

I suppose it could be considered ironic that I spent a large portion of a Bank Holiday sorting and filing statements, payslips, cheques, etc. Still, a six-inch-high stack of paper went for recycling, and nearly everything else went in the filing cabinet, so I feel I achieved something useful.

I'm sure having to go through such huge piles of paper ought to teach me that I should just file things as I go along. However, given that it only took about an hour to file a heap of paper going back to June 2003, and doing all the filing in one go allowed me to get something useful done while watching the snooker, I can't really convince myself that it's a bad thing.

There are so many things I keep meaning to write about on LiveJournal. I think it's time for a poll, to ask my readership (dear readers!) what they want to read, out of the stuff that's currently wandering around in my head:

[Poll #288427]

I can't guarantee I'll actually get round to writing about any of these, but I'd be interested to know what people choose.

Badgers are intelligent and interesting and stripy and cool. Sheep are just meat-and-two-cardigans on legs. :)

Ooh yes, stripes, hadn't thought of that. Stripy things are good.

However, I deplore your off-hand dismissal of cardigans.

Yes, more stuff about badgers. My little brother has never forgiven my parents, they took me and middle brother into the Dorset woods at midnight to sacrifice us to Beelzebub watch badgers. And we saw them.

Mum knitted me a badger when I was very little. Middle brother got a rat, ha ha. (Wind in the Willows - had little brother been alive he would have probably got a toad, ha ha ha).
