Saying Yes to Mess
(if the above link no longer works, try this one here.)
For those too busy to click on the above, I share this excerpt:
Studies are piling up that show that messy desks are the vivid signatures of people with creative, limber minds (who reap higher salaries than those with neat “office landscapes”) and that messy closet owners are probably better parents and nicer and cooler than their tidier counterparts.
I don't just say "yes." I say "yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!"

I can't tell you how much that article helped me just as I was getting down down down about this crazy mess. Thanks for the link and a little bit of hope.

I would post a pic of my desk, but I'm too embarrassed. I'm getting alot done, though.
Thanks for giving me a whole new perspective on my messiness. I'll carry it with me through the New Year.
This is a popular idea right now. Have you seen the book "A Perfect Mess?" Two researchers (I think) have written a book about this very subject. It's not a bad read, at least to make yourself feel better for a while. ( Here's my review)
Baltasar Gracian - The great art of giving consists in this: the gift should cost very little and yet be greatly coveted, so that it may be the more highly appreciated.Nice Comment Keep it up.
