I'm not declaring actual bankruptcy. I'm not declaring any kind of bankruptcy, actually, but I'm considering email bankruptcy. What if I set up an auto-reply at work that said "Dr. Gladly thought about her email inbox and decided she just.couldn't.even" and an auto-reply at Gmail that said "Jamie is SO DONE with stupid school district messages and stupid sub requests for church ministries and stupid irrelevant Scout announcements that she is unplugging for a while. Perhaps your message is a very nice message. Maybe you could send it again in 2017"?
Except that's too long, because all the people who would read it are probably also up to HERE with the email.

I was going to write a nice happy post about how stoked I am to be involved with RCIA this year, but then I spent most of my available time dealing with some of the 42 emails that had accumulated in my work inbox since Tuesday afternoon-- 42 not including the easily deleted announcement-y kinds of things. We will not even discuss the state of my personal inbox.
I think I need an email Plan. Who's got one for me?
