Million little things..

When you are split six ways from sunday on all the little tasks you have to get done.

I was going to talk about something else, until my partner reminded me I had to give him a map link. Then I remembered I had to reply to a number of collaberators today. Then once I started this blog, I got stopped twice as mentors came over to check up on us.

This is pretty typical and people go through this every day. I've decided that a million little things that are almost done aren't nearly as good as one thing that is. So for now, (and even though I restarted this blog). I figured I won't stop until I get finished.

It always amazes me though. People ask for stuff to be done, and even if you politely say no, the task seems so small and trivial that it's almost insulting to turn it down. The problem is that there are usually a million tasks to do that day. An exaggeration but I know I'm easily in the hundreds. And people are notoriously bad for underestimating tasks. That certainly includes myself. For this project I tend to structure my tasks and give them an estimated time to be completed. And I am always off, but at least I am getting closer.

One other note, I'm usually drained at the end of the day so I think I am going to start blogging in the morning whenever possible.

But look, I'm finished blogging for today! Thats one task down. 120 or so to go before I can get some sleep.

Until tomorrow.
