Where'd I put the dust pan and broom?

The new computer is on a plane (or perhaps a truck) on its way to me already, so I really need to clean the junk off this one. Oh sure, I could just plug in a cable and transfer files, but when I first started poking around, I found nested folders with names like "oldharddrivebackup" inside "misc file from C" inside "to copy" inside "my documents."

It's like when we cleaned out my grandmother' basement and I found a bag inside a box containing a bag full of bags.

I really need to break this disorganized pack rat cycle.

Of course, every time I get a new computer, I say this time it will be different. This time, I won't name things "1.txt" or save everything on my desktop.

For some reason, that grand lie made me remember Larry Miller's "Five levels of drinking" (for the end, of course.)

I'm not going to get stuff sorted out tonight. Maybe I'll just pick up a big external drive of the way home tomorrow, copy the whole shebang, and organize it later.
