List things you're doing today besides DU

- Going to doctor for routine checkup - leaving at 3:30 PM

- Discovered and liked some new music artists, from what I heard: Arab Strap, Sonya Kitchell (what a mature voice for 17!,) and Corrinne May. Also listened to SHeDAISY's Fortuneteller's Melody, which is very good pop/country. Gets a strong B+. Good bouncy songs like "Whatever It Takes," nice barnburners like "Kickin' In," and "Burn Down The House," and clever ballads like "She Gets What I Deserve" and "In Terms Of Love." Even gets traditional on "Out Of My Mind." "God Bless The American Housewife" is a little condescending, and I've not a fan of Jann Arden, the co-writer.

- Also talked to a just found relative in Brazil on MSN Messenger. I knew she and other family members were there, but never had contact. She's my great-grandfather's brother's great-granddaughter.

...but noooo, I'm loitering here!

Let's see if I can disentangle myself.

so that I can get off DU and work on my thesis...

- finished up the last details of a presentation i have to give tomorrow.

- returning emails to some people i haven't talked to in ages

- going out for dinner at a little tapas place downtown

- buying a Roomba robot vacuum :D at Target

- taking The Boy to his dad's

- we'll prolly watch a little TV tonight

BTW, my appointment went well. I need to lose weight, but blood pressure was even low at the office.

coughed a lot

Sorted out all the various types of blocks, builders, and Legos and put them into bins
Picked up and put away every loose CD and DVD in the playroom, threatening to put them all in time out if they aren't treated carefully and put away every time they are used
Vacuumed the playroom and all the bedrooms
Folded and hung up the clothes my adult daughter thoughtlessly left in the laundry room
Paid a few bills
