Normally, my Numerical Methods problem set is finished around 2-4 in the morning. Today we somehow finished at 19h30. So instead of agonizing in the cluster, I went grocery shopping (I never managed...the bathroom, and washed the kitchen floor. Now I get to go to bed early and get a good night's sleep! (By this, of course, I mean something like seven hours.) Free evenings are really wonderful things
Am going cross-eyed, or possibly blind. Also just found out that the monster children's mum's office Halloween party is on Friday morning . (There goes any last-minute runway fittings.) Jedi robe not...up as Sarah Palin. Not only do I not have the $150,000 wardrobe, but I can't quite inject the proper flavor of Screw-You-Over-With-A-Smile Mean Girl into my voice either. * Mum's words, not mine.
I watered all my new plants for the third time today. All eight are still living. We went by the Home Depot relocation clearance sale yesterday with mixed results. Most things are marked 30-40% off. But...play a haunted house game. I immediately fell into the basement and was the first one killed. Then we played Set, and I got a couple. B actually beat D, but that's because she was playing Super Set
Our city is switching to a new way of recycling. Old way: Place glass, metal and #1 and #2 plastic bottles into a blue recycling bin. Add a bag for paper and maybe a tied packet of flattened corrugated...using the smallest size trash can, but with the extra things we are allowed to recycle, are any of you switching to a smaller trash can (it's cheaper!)? Happy day! (See, I told you I could like change.
One of the good things about this wild election is that it's bringing all the ignorant bigots, theocrats and jingoists out into the open where we can see them. The bad thing is that it's bringing all...a sort of idea for mine, but I need to figure out something for M, too. --- And on that subject, a meme, gacked from blot Do an image search for Halloween plus the year you were born
I made " Angel Pie " from Allrecipes to bring to our "One Thing" at church - where we all got together and prayed over all the churches requests... awesome time of fellowship and food afterwards! This...well - it definitely sticks. I think that's it - if any of you that got to partake have any advice or comments feel free... I will DEFINITELY be making it again. May even try a coconut one sometime
More birthday stuff this weekend. I got to paint with poster paint! There is still quite a bit to do even with having it catered. The sewing needs doing, but I'll be doing that next week. But for...to be A TON of people there she's not going to know at all, it would just be a really uncomfortable situation for her. But Thanksgiving, now that's more her pace. I really really really hope she comes
I haven't posted in a while. In fact, I shouldn't be posting now, but my GRE study partner has yet to arrive and I can find no motivation to start without him. This is probably a bad thing because we're...more time put into it, but I don't know when. My social life involves preping Mark Study, working on problem sets, fixing up the basement, and occasionally exploring steam tunnels. Is this a problem
