Sex, lies and...ok, just videotape

Sure, I have stories of sex and lies, but TONIGHT was all about videotape. Specifically, the 92 videotapes I've had sitting there...and sitting there...and, well, yeah, i've decided to add THEM to my Overall Life Cleansing. I do NOT need 92 videotapes. I mean, most things are on DVD anyway. But beyond that, I haven't touched 95% of those tapes in months...years, even. I certainly don't need 24 umarked tapes. I have no idea what's on them. Ugh, I SO wanna just throw them out. But I know I won't. But my viewing of them WILL be as brief as can be. I do NOT have the fucking time for this. Tonight alone, I've dumped 6 of my 10 SIMPSONS tapes and cut my FRASIER ones by half, down to three. I'd say 15 tapes overall are sitting in a trash bag by the curb right now. It's tedious, but immensely satisfying. And I've already come across some surprise gems...like the final week of TOM SNYDER's CBS show. I KNEW I had them somewhere. I can't believe he's gone. Watching the tapes from 1999, it feels like yesterday. I am SO grateful I taped those shows, now properly labeled for eternity. He really did EXACTLY what I wanna do with my life. Well, cheers to my ongoing productivity!! I pray I can motivate YOU to attack YOUR pile of WHATEVER. Just DO it.
