Newt sack, sack of newts
Aug. 1st, 2007 10:13 pmSo, I got sick on Monday, one of those tickle-throat thingies you know will be bad. So on my way home, progressively getting worse, I stopped and bought a quart of OJ for 99 cents. It was 99 cents because "technically" it expired two days previous. Everyone knows those are just guidelines anyway. I downed the whole thing that night, just to be safe. That, combined with vitamins, sweating the illness out by helping a realtor friend clean their rental, and more sleep than I usually let myself get on a weekday (more than 6 hours), and after semi-shitty day yesterday, I KICKED THAT COLD'S ASS. The cough, she lingers.
Today I....
-Worked from 7:30am - 12:30pm
-sent off the rest of my debt payment for this month
-finished the homemade chicken noodle soup I made WHILE SICK 'CAUSE I'M AWESOME
-did 5 hours of stripping nasty-ass wallpaper
-cleaned the chair I found sitting by the dumpster out back (damn I love August 1st)
-re-planted one of the plants on my porch into a bigger pot
-sent an email I'd been meaning to send for at least 2 months
-ate a good dinner at a decent hour
-used one of those face masks that I've had for months (mmm, pumpkin)
-and most importantly, DIDN'T TAKE A NAP LIKE AN OLD PERSON OR AN INFANT.
Naps, while they may be good for other people, are not good for me. I tend to nap in 2 hour stretches and this helps no one.
Now, to save clearing out the....311 emails from my inbox for tomorrow. So much to do (besides that). School starts again on the 16th and that blows bumblebees.
Oh yeah, and this is what 1000 people in a Borders looks like. And this was our Snape and whoever-the-hell-she-was-supposed-to-be looked like. It was pretty fun, actually....for someone who has only read the first book.
