to-do lists are a waste of potential time

Here is my to-do list today:

Laundry (Chris didn't have any of the socks he likes to wear, or any white undershirts.)

Put away clothes (There is a clothes basket that has been in the bedroom for three weeks now.)

Dishes (Dishwasher hasn't been unloaded in five days or so.)

Vacuum

Swiffer

Clean out garage-take stuff to consignment and Goodwill

Change sheets

Upload graduation pics to Picasa so my fan club can admire my greatness (pics are on facebook and myspace)

Wrap some presents

Pick up the various mail/paper clutter scattered around the house

Here is my to-do list that I can actually do:
