I've got my work e-mail inbox down under 4500 messages! I chip away at it now and then. Sentmail over 6500.

Hoping to shave Netflix queue to under 300.

Dude, indeed, dude. I figure hard disk death will take care of a lot of backlog of info. At work we're networked and backed up to the hilt, though, but they'll wipe out all associated with me when I wipe out. Eventually. Probably. (Accounts do still exist in our system for some of the long-gone.)

Since May 25th of last year I've returned 127 disks to Netflix, only 2 of them, I think, without having watched 'em at least some. A lot have been TV shows. I rarely watch regular TV (as perhaps that rental rate indicates). I was going absolutely crazy at first with the thing, in the spirit of getting my benefactors' money's worth.

All this to say: your estimate of 300 being 2 years' worth is pretty close. Mostly it's a 2-day turnaround here, though---we send 'em to Lansing, and most come from Lansing, and it really is usually just one day in the mail in each direction.

It really has been one of the best presents I've ever been given.

Sorry I missed your party, btw. That night just got away from me. Did I have the right # for your cell when I left you a message a while ago? You don't seem like the type to use the generic recording.

That reminds me: I think I'm using the generic recording, since I got the new phone. Have to look into that.

Hmm...I never got your message. No worries about missing the party...there was much fun had by all...and a lot of no shows...or very late shows. No worries :-) I'll still be around from time to time.
