I feel like starting a pretty pointless thread.
So today I've got a meeting with a speech therapist to evaluate my son at the school (in about an hour) and then this afternoon I have to take my oldest to a podiatrist to have her ingrown toenails cut out. (ballet is tough on the feet)
Then I'm going to get to work on some Christmas sewing projects.
Today I have class from now until after one, then I have to finish my Math Homework. I plan on working on an essay or studying for my physics prelim until about 12, when they have a midnight showing of the director's cut of donnie darko. Not that exciting of a day...

So far, I got up at 12:00 (no classes on fridays ), and took my sister to where she was picked up for a trip with the girl scouts. Then I came home, ate something, took the laundry off the line, folded it, and am now Hatracking until my grandfather and great aunt come over for dinner at 7:00.

Then this evening I take my kids over to a church youth group function -- a party at the youth leader's home, in which each teen is supposed to bring something (game, food, etc.) that starts with the letter "P".
So my son bought a chili Pepper Pinãta, filled it with Peppermints, Paydays, Pixie Sticks, Peanut butter cups, and Peppermint Patties, and bought a Purple Pinãta Poker (bat) and a purple bandana to use as a blindfold. (we had fun shopping for that last night)

Pay the pile of bills... on time. Pick up my prescription for Zyban. Go to work and put in a good day. Come home and enjoy being with my wife. Sleep well and try to knock out a couple of home projects on Saturday.

...nothing. And then maybe some more nothing, yeah, that'd be nice. I think I'll read a bit, game a bit, eat a bit, and go visit some friends tonight. Yup, sounds like a productive day to me!

Ok, right now I'm gonna go up to town and look for a poster for a certain event this tuesday. I'll look around and see if there's anyone I know around. Then I'm gonna come back here and start writing a speech for said event. After writing the speech I'll start writing a letter to my girlfriend.
And then maybe I'll clean my room.

One last day of work before the weekend, woohoo! We're in the quiet period between month close and the finalisation of the ledger, so I am going to use the day to catch up on paperwork. I also am working on a special project in which I get to look up company information on the Internet.
During lunch I will read the latest issue of Discover. I love that magazine.
And then I shall go home and play Final Fantasy VIII, and possible order either real Chinese food, or a pizza. I also need to work on my NaNo novel a bit.

Oh, I forgot to mention - I have to send off a transcript request to the college I attended, because I had to fill out a new application for the spring semester. The discarded my old one, when I didn't start the semester I was originally planning.
A little frustrating, but my husband told me dealing with the hassles and bereaucracy is just part of the process, and part of what having a college degree means is that you can wade your way through all that kind of mess.
He then reminded me of how much seemingly useless paperwork and how manyhoops I'll have to jump through when I have a real job again, and I shut up.

Got a meeting in half an hour to discuss a community service project. Then electrical networks class at 1:40. Tonight maybe I'll go do Aikido at the dojo, or I'll go see The Incredibles. Or both.

Over my lunch hour I plan on going over to the courthouse to see if I can get my speeding ticket changed to an administrative ticket and stay off my record.
Tonight I was planning on going out for drinks after work with my friend Ralph, but he had to cancel. Now I don't know what I'm going to do.

We're presenting our Annual Report concept to our CFO today. Hope he likes it. I don't feel like reworking the whole thing again.

Be at work. Not much is going on here today, so I'm mostly surfing and playing games.
Maybe go grocery shopping on my way home.
Unpack the boxes of stuff that go in my desk. Maybe unpack the last of the kitchen stuff. Maybe hang up the new towel hooks in the bathroom.
Wake up my husband.
Go to dinner at my brother's house.
Go look at a stereo a guy has for sale.
After that, I don't know....be lonely while my husband is at work, I suppose....maybe I'll have my mom come over and watch more Firefly with me (I introduced her to it yesterday).

Well, I had a class that I almost absolutely had to go to at 9:30. I now *must* be there next week. And I've had an assignment sitting in front of me that I've been trying to start for about 12 hours that's due around 4:00. I worked for the prof last summer, I'm sure she won't mind if it's late. Then I'm supposed to spend a few hours in the lab today, but I think I'll just analyze my data from last night and check out early. Let's see, then I've got another assignment that I really need to finish early this weekend so I leave myself time to polish off my presentation for my thesis proposal.
So, basically, I'm going to sit around in my skivvies, play computer games and read books and stick my fingers in my ears shouting "la la la!" when someone points ought all that I ought to be doing.
I'm nothing if not consistent and years of practice have made me very good at what I do

I'm going to spend the day praying that I'm pregnant. I've done that pretty much all day every day for the past 10 days.
I'm also going to celebrate my 4th wedding anniversary with Andrew. I am deciding between a purple Sigrid Olsen boucle sweater and a navy cashmere Ralph Lauren cowl neck.

MrsM, I've been thinking of you. I will add my own version of prayers to you.
A good omen: This week I found a buttery soft gray cashmere Ralph Lauren sweater at a secondhand store for 5 bucks, perfect condition. (I wore it after the election for comfort. *grin)
All sorts of miracles in the wind!

I am so happy for your good news - there's nothing like cashmere, unless it's deep discount cashmere.

I can spot cashmere at thirty paces. Over a life of combing thriftshops, I've gathered maybe half a dozen things. Makes for a lovely winter -- with every gentle washing, they just get softer and softer.
May you find your heart's desire, Mrs.M.
(This morning on Buffy reruns, I listened to a character sing "I'm his Mrs" -- you were very close in my thoughts then, too.)

How is the Mr. Floppy saga going anyway, Sara? Does your younger cat (can't remember which name is his) still drag him everywhere and get very upset about something every 12 hours?

1. Writing...I'm hopelessly behind on NaNo, due to working at a polling place during the election and paying bills and other stuff that couldn't be put off.
2. Reading.
3. Shopping for blankets...it was cold here last night, and I could use at least a couple more blankets for my bed.
That's about it, I think. I've been so busy this week that I deserve a "down" day. Not that I really expect that I will get it, but one can always hope.

Wake up. check. Check email and answering machine. check. Call back advisor. check. Set up internship interview. check. Go pick up the book for my stats class. Read chapters for stats class (no, I NEVER procrastinate). Load..oh wait, I HAVE SPSS on my computer (yeay for being a research assistant!). Find someone to take my student SPSS copy. Pack for class. Try not to be late for class. Pay attention in class. Try not to distract my classmates (they insist my ADHD is contagious). Come home. Check email. Do a load of laundry. I should wash my dishes. Go to bed at a decent hour.
...I'm SURE I forgot something. Dammit.

I STILL need to pick up my books and read them. But, at least Margaret is about to have a cute boyfriend and they were talking to each other and now they are friends but he's younger than she is... And I have to WRITE WRITE WRITE! Why do days off go by so fast? Stupid being psycologically evaluated.
