today is a very tired day in terra-land. i’m guessing that the sleep deficit is catching up with me. or maybe it’s because last night was slacker sunday and so after the zomeister was aslumbering, i watched the simpsons movie and then three episodes of house. and went to bed at 2am.
then i got up at 7ish.
i have a lot on my plate, as usual, but it seems to be the sleepiest days when it all congeals into this must be done immediately, pull up your socks and kick your own ass miasma of tasks.
this means that today, i did the following:
- budgeting for the next month
- bill paying for the next two weeks, via post-dated cheques
- grocery shopping
- two walks with zoë and playtime
- three snacks and meals for zoë and myself
- for client #1: email database creating, invoicing for november, commission report based on sales to date, promo emailing
- sorted laundry for tomorrow
- bathtime with zo
- had a quiet evening all about zoë, including a movie, cuddling and popcorn
- bang trimming for z (all 12 hairs that were in her eyes)
- five stories read with z
- taught her how to tickle the fuzzy animals in her books (all like, 34 of them)
- 54 blog posts read, one written
i still have more to do before i can say nigh-night and the goal is to hit the sheets by 11pm, but i’m thinking that’s a little under-exaggerating of the time i’ll really be up until because i still have to, at least:
- do a load of dishes
- plan and prep for some baking tomorrow
- execute another promo email for client #1 and download some freeware for easy maintenance of her contacts’ database
- take a shower, if i’m lucky
in the next hour and change. if i was really on my game, i’d be mopping and writing a post at the other site, too. but i’m not, cuz my game is asleep.
well, onto coffee #3 and more productivity.
it’s been suggested a couple of times that my oldest baby sister and i look like this chick, elisha cuthbert. i disagree, but i’ll take the compliment. maybe it’s the rounder face and wide cheekbones. either way, her nose is an uppy while ours is a downy and she has perfect teeth and no one with our blood has perfect teeth.
but she is smoking hot and i have decided/craved, not based on googling her images, even before that, that i want to go really really blonde, like that. like i used to be in 2001, maybe. i’ve never had it blonde in adulthood without having a short-dyke-rocker haircut. i think i will give myself a rememberence day present in the form of hair battery.
