13 Things I Did While Not Working

May 1, 2008 · Filed Under Life ·

To continue my last post, I thought I would participate in this week’s Thursday Thirteen, even though it is almost Friday. So here you go, here are thirteen things that I did today while I should have been working, but wasn’t.

Wrote down each and every thing I need to accomplish work-wise for the next week.
Spent a truly incredible amount of time on Twitter.
Did a lot of random blog hopping.
Ate two packets of Ramen. In fact, I seriously never want to see another packet of Ramen again given the number of packs I have eaten in the past week.
Watched Judge Maria Lopez–while eating Ramen.
Thought long and hard about playing Virtua Fighter 5 (most addicting video game ever, especially since I kick some–No, I kick a lot of ass at it) after Judge Maria Lopez was over.
Cursed the no coffee creamer having gods of the universe, making me switch from my usual coffee to water–with Pur Flavor Options.
Came to the conclusion that Pandora is one of the Best. Websites. Ever.
Checked my MySpace and marveled at the intimidating amount of people who have obviously lost their minds so early in life.
Got groceries–And nearly made love to the Creme Brulee Coffee-Mate coffee creamer.
Watched television with the boyfriend. (Hooray for quality time that we haven’t gotten to spend with each other much lately.)
Had sex. (*gasp*)
Came back to finish this post–You know, after the television-watching and sex-having.

I Need a Change of Scenery

May 1, 2008 · Filed Under Life ·

Or at least I think that’s my problem. Really, I don’t know what it is, but something definitely must change around these parts or I’m going to be a poor (yes, I believe with this economy it may be possible to be more poor than I already am) and very, very sad woman. The first order of business, you know, as soon as I hit the lottery is to get a laptop so I am no longer chained to a desk in a room that keeps getting smaller as the hours pass right on by.

Here’s a little look into my day job. I have been sitting here for over four hours trying to get a website for a client done. Now, these past four hours are only a glimpse into the amount of time I have spent trying to get this website done; really, it has been three days. Three days! Three days and I have a background image done–I think I’ve made amazing progress, don’t you?

My feminist coverage as of late has been shotty, to put it in the most “socially acceptable” terms and I will work on putting more time into bringing you, the viewers, my various responses to several fucked up things going on in the world.

And since I am now incredibly too far behind on all of my work, I shall see you folks later. Send inspiration and motivation if you have any to spare.
