What have I done??

I don't know what possessed me to think it was a good idea to re-arrange my cd case. My bed is now covered in cds, and I don't know how to start putting them back. The perfectionist in me wants to alphabetize. But then whenever I get a new cd, I would have to move them all around to make room in the proper place. I could go back to my old system of putting them in a general order of how much I listen to them. New cds up front, old ones in back. But that just doesn't seem organized enough. Maybe I could break them up into older and newer, and then alphabetize those sections separately. Ahhhh! Why did I start this?

Do you have a cd case? How do you organize it? Or do you just throw cds in there willy-nilly? <--- *shudders at the thought*

I don't have as many cds as I thought I did. When they're all spread out on my bed it looks like a million of them. But my cd case only holds 200 cds and I know I don't have enough to fill it up. I'm curious to see exactly how many I have. I will count them once I have them all put away.

I also now have a stack of cd booklets about 6" tall. I used to put the booklet on the other side of the sleeve behind the corresponding cd. But then I started running out of room, so I started to take some of the older ones out. Today I took them all out. I rarely look at the booklets anymore, especially for my older cds. My new ones I look at for the lyrics, if they have them. Anyway, the cases must still be at my mom's house. I want to go get them so I can put them away. I don't like having booklets with no homes.

So, yeah. Why did I think this was a good idea? Guess I better get back to it. Once I figure out my organizational plan, that is.

UPDATE: (2.5 hours later)
I'm done! Whew! I can't believe I spent over 3 hours organizing my cds. LOL. I ended up doing them alphabetically, but I left a blank space every few pages so that I would only have to re-arrange small sections when I get new cds. We'll see how that works for me. I think it will have to be good enough, 'cause I'm not re-re-organizing any time soon. Heh.
