Late-night rain, and a TODO list that never ends

1 a.m., and it's raining outside. There are eleven items left on my TODO list, three of them copied over from last month.

I turned the desk lamp down and put on some rain sounds, and somehow I felt less rushed. Some things not getting done today isn't a productivity problem — they just never belonged to today in the first place.

I kept three for tomorrow and deleted the other eight. Looking at it the next morning, I couldn't remember a single one of them.
