Binders full of men and takeout menus

As an authority on organized living, I feel a responsibility to clear up some recent misconceptions regarding binders.

I love binders. That doesn't make me some kind of 1950s throwback who panders to people who believe Planned Parenthood, Big Bird and gay people are aligned in a plot to destroy America. Big Bird just doesn't strike me as having the kind of critical thinking skills to pull something like that off.    

The point is, binders play a key role in my attempt to keep the demands of career, household, parenting and delusional thinking organized and distinct. Because there's only so much a thumbtack can hold.

If there is a better way to juggle the requirements of making a living in the language-based arts while pursuing your dreams of getting the teenagers out of the house, I don't know what it is.

Paper clips, maybe?

I loved this! And I also have a cabinet stuffed with various binders. Granted, mine aren't titled exactly the same; much to my dismay.

If there is a more efficient way to pretend that your family can not completely sabotage any and every item on your to-do list, they don't sell it at Office Depot.

I love that the two largest categories are "Sex Fantasies", and "Reasons to drink"...I'm pretty sure all the rest of the binders could be incorporated into those two.

You have mad efficiency skills, Cactus.
