Jun. 20th, 2006 09:55 pmJune 20, 2006 Progress Notes:
The Shortest Distance Between Points
Words today: 175.
Words total: 450.
Reason for stopping: This is no longer saying what I thought it was. And it's flash, so I'm really figuring out the end bit. And I sooo donwanna tonight.
Tea: Iced oolong tea.
Munchies: Enough cherries that I started feeling sick. Mmm, cherries.
Exercise: 30 minutes elliptical, 25 reps arm weights, 15 reps leg weights, 12 reps pushy arm weights. Yes, that is a technical term.
Mail: Nomail.
Other Writing-Related Work: Three crits on the workshop, answered some e-mail, slushed.
Darling du Jour: Nothing particular today.
Tyop du Jour: N/A
Words MS Word Doesn't Know: N/A
Mean Things: Wasted work. I'm not actually quite sure right now, but I know whatever's doing here, it's mean.
Books in progress: Tobias S. Buckell, Crystal Rain; Iain M. Banks, The Algebraist
The glamour: Spent most of the day buying groceries, which were too heavy to lug back and required me to spend a token for the streetcar.
An aloe vera plant followed me home last night after class. I wasn't going to let it in, but it made big green spiny eyes at me and sniffled. I'm a sucker.
Also, had the first step of growing avocado plants from avocado pits demonstrated to me at my parents' house on Sunday night. I bought four avocadoes today for this purpose, and also to make guacamole and/or avocado/tomato salad, and because they were four for five bucks.
I'm not actually hungry right now, but I really really want to start the avocado plants.
*...runs off to play with avocados*
