If that doesn't count as Doing Things - especially the first two - then I am even lazier than I thought.

That was like five minutes of Things.

I am about to put bread in the oven, AND I recreated my "love and heartbreak" playlist (favorite!), so I'm not totally unaccomplished for the day. And when the bread comes out of the oven, I may even go to the library.

That was like five minutes of Things.

Now you're just showing off.

I am going to try and not get a migraine before tomorrow's massage. It's a tall goal, but I hope to achieve it nonetheless.

Thanks for the thumbs up on the portrait thing. I hope there's a point at which it becomes easier, but I am learning lots about my camera. I've been clicking through other people's attempts, and there's some really good shit on Flickr. Damn.

Now you're just showing off.

Showing off my low standards of "clean," maybe....

I've spent the morning trying not to vomit. Fortunately DH has been incredible and took over the (usually mine) early-morning baby duties AND did laundry and is now out with the boy running errands.

Between the cold I had last week and this stomach thing now, I've been sick for my entire holiday break. Bleargh.

Eating nothing but bananas, saltines, tea and ginger ale...I feel like I'm pregnant again. (And no, no chance of that.)

I need to go for groceries. But it's snowing. Again. This winter stuff sucks.

All I've done today is go to the mall early and return my holiday returns. Which is something. But since it's a 4 minute walk to the mall, and I wanted coffee anyway...

I should probably take down my tree, since it's so dry that even looking at it makes it shed more needles.

Ugh-- that sounds like a whole lot of no-fun.

I love how this article sums up Aztec characteristics:

a warlike and religious people who built monumental works and are credited with inventing chocolate

Nifty article, about even older ruins found in Mexico City. This could push the age of the city back to 1100 or 1200.

I need to sit down and read up about Aztecs, Incans, and the Maya. I know I have a bunch of stuff mixed up in my head, and a bunch of holes besides that.

Jessica, hopefully you'll be better for the turnover of the year.

a warlike and religious people who built monumental works and are credited with inventing chocolate

I can forgive a LOT of war for the people who invented chocolate.

(Because The Boy has a serious jones for chocolate -- far beyond any I've seen in anyone else, for real -- he was inundated with chocolate for Christmas. My dad bought The Boy a very large box of Godiva. I'm starting to think he likes The Boy better than he likes me....

Anyway, we have so much chocolate in our house right now, it's almost comical. I feel like I'm living with Willy Wonka.)

I'm trying to think of stuff I can do when I have a miserable cold, and really, there's not much out there when your head hurts, your ears hurt, your eyes hurt, and your throat hurts. Good think I'm sleeping 20 hours a day, or I'd be getting cabin fever.
