jinianBought stuff for organizing my papers at my new lab rotation today. I did wind up coming to the lab where Amy, the one I met with over ginger apple cider, works. She's in Jordan at the moment because you're not allowed to fly for a while after doing major scuba diving, which apparently was her winter break. Anyway, binder! Clipboard! Making little tabs out of lab tape!
Tacks to put more stuff on my office corkboard.
The book of David Quammen essays for $5 does not help organization per se, but was a find nonetheless.
In the bead department, creative chaos is good. Putting things next to each other that otherwise wouldn't have been is a fine idea. It becomes hindering-type chaos when I can't find any of my fucking findings because they're in three different bins of awkwardly shaped containers and wire spools. Now all the findings and wire and such are in the astonishing Murano glass bowl that's on indefinite loan from Wim's stepmom. Much better. But where do I put the bowl so that cats don't try to eat the stringly objects?
