A sight I haven’t seen in years

I’ve been trying to clean up my email, aggregator and life to some extent before the baby arrives, and it’s kind of pathetic how liberated I feel looking at this message:

Now, if you all can just stop posting things for the next month or so, that would be great. K thx!

I’m jealous. There are about 230 things in my reader that I care to digest some day, and another thousand or so that fall into the category of “would be nice, possibly even useful, if I only had a chance to skim…”

Kudos to you for getting atop of it while you had the chance. As you probably expect, life’s priorities are about to change big-time. 🙂

LOL that made me smile… I just came back from maternity leave and a little time off from all of my online stuff had had such a mess waiting for me in my reader. Just getting it cleaned up now. You’re right – it’s liberating. 🙂
