Hil, I've had that book recommended to me, too. I saw it in the bookstore the other day and almost bought it, but I've got so many other partially read books I figured I better save it until I finish something. And go, semi-datage!

So far, I've done dishes and made coffee. That may be all I do today. This post brought to you by the word apathy.

back from research lunch break. Tom baked the CI multigrain sandwich bread yesterday and we ate it with butter, cheese, pickled onions, and salad. Tom had a beer (Samuel Smith's Taddy Porter) but I only sipped, for lo, I have much more to do today, and napping is sadly not on the agenda.

I am procrastinating with productiveness again. I'm so weird.

And how many hours did Stephanie sleep?

I think only 7, which is too bad becuse now I wish it was more.

Well, I have my summer/fall schedule/classes/work schedule figured out. So exciting. There are some exciting classes I'll be taking.

vw - that is cool! I just finished the "must do" homework and can finally take a break.

On Monday and Tuesday I have sophomore counceling sessions for each of the girls to plan out the rest of their high school careers. Oy!!!

Go MG!

So, I'm gonna try to take two summer session classes this summer, then we'll try again for five classes in the fall...split days, though. I'll have classes every day of the week. Then, I'll work when not in class. Such an exciting life I lead.

Announcement: Today was of the suck.

I think I'm a poltergeist, or possibly having bad physical biorhythms, or even maybe a Chaos Demon (someone check for antlers?). Three things have fallen out of cupboards onto me, including a package of Oreos the DH bought at the commissary special. (They are now best used for Oreo ice cream).

Then the bottle of olive oil flew off the counter and shattered into a million billion pieces. My back was turned, so I don't know what happened, but my feet got punctured pretty well. Naturally it was a full bottle too, although not the big 2-liter jobbie. Thankfully Mal was napping, so the DH and I could clean up without complications. He's not big on blood, though, so the blood globules in the oil were a problem. Me comparing it to a lava lamp didn't help.

Just now, something in the oven caught fire (what? no idea. I cleaned it last week and have baked one thing, which wasn't a greasy/leaky thing) while I was roasting a chicken for dinner. All the doors and windows are open now, I've duct-taped over the smoke alarms, and I think it's cold cereal for dinner.

On the plus side, the DH seems to be okay with me being on the computer, although Mal is not. But I need the break.

Analysis: Going to stop trying to do things and just watch TV. But will let DH deal with the TV and remote and whatnot.

My next chore is to clean out the van and go shopping for our road trip. But it is cold as HECK outside and the wind is out in force - I don't wanna go outside.

Poor Raq! You take care of yourself. We need our Raq around!
