On keeping an agenda

Based on where the ink scribbles start to die down, it looks like I stopped using my physical agenda sometime in mid-March. It’s a nice one, too, happy pink leather with soft off-white paper purchased from Kate’s Paperie. However, once I discovered the functionality in Google calendar that sends reminders to your cell phone, coupled with its easy drag - and - drop of action items, I changed platforms.

Before the platform switch, though, seems I wrote down this li’l nugget:

Do all people compare the others in the waiting room of their therapists’ offices? If so, is it, “These people are so much more fucked up than me,” or is it, “Dammit, what does SHE need therapy for?”

(Maybe she needs therapy to squelch a pesky dangling preposition problem?)

Before I turn the mockputer off and execute the following algorithm

1. Determine & prioritize autumn goals
2. Deck specific action items against each
3. Map out dependencies and temporal constraints for each

I leave you with one more data point for the awesomeness of Google calendar: the fact that you can create multiple calendars with varying degrees of privacy. For example, here’s the list o’ cool things to do in mostly NYC that I call Culturati. It’s dynamically driven so if you click the “+ Google Calendar” icon in the lower right-hand corner, you can follow it.

So, I’ll see you at All-Ivy Cocktails on Thursday?

Or Kundalini yoga on Friday?

Or maybe we’ll run Park Avenue together on Saturday morning?

(Dude, can we do a GCaf lunch now??)
