I have too many windows

forsythI have an Openoffice window open, sitting waiting for me to type something. It's lurking down on the taskbar, with IRC, Mozilla AND Firefox (both with tabs open), Furc, and this. Not to mention Trillian and Winamp in the systray. My attention span is shot all to heck, which is probably part of why I don't write much. I need to write first, THEN do other things.
Well, maybe not write first. But I need to prioritize. I am a nerd. I crave systems for things. I should make one for me, and then stick to it, to allow me to actually do things with any regularity. So I don't end up, as I did just now, completely forgetting the Really Cool Thing I was going to write. Though in some ways, it's inevitably Really Cooler when it's not done, for it is then potential for really coolness, without the flaws of actual craftsmanship. Sorta like airbrushed models.
