You mean I don't have to read every word ever written?

There comes a time when you realize you can't do everything.

This time hasn't come yet as far as all the magazines and books I have lying around waiting to be read, and videotapes waiting to be watched.

I did trash all the unwatched Millionaires from TiVo. That's progress. And I delete E-mails like Media Bistro's daily news feed and NYT headlines if still unread after a month.

I got behind in reading my usual blogs, due to the trip. I finally caught up on Gawker. But I'm still up to 1/28 on Gothamist, and a pre-trip 1/16 on Overheard in New York.

I was scrolling through Gothamist for 1/29 and the realization hit me: I will live if I don't read this. And I'll also live if I don't read every witty thing that was overheard in NY. Wow.
