Old Adages

Another day, another dollar ... oh, wait ... that phrase only applies to the employed. Anyways ...

So far this week, I have:

1. Washed all of the couch cushions. They'll be covered in dog hair again by Friday, but it passed the time.

2. Framed four new pieces of "art." Two of these were my degrees. I find it easier to pretend that I have a "home office" instead of a table in my spare bedroom when I can look over at my B.A. and my M.A. I give it two weeks until this sense of accomplishment is replaced by bitterness and/or resignation.

3. Started reading Designing Web Pages for Dummies. I'm a little worried it's over my head.

4. Read a young adult romance novel called Going Too Far that I enjoyed far more. I think it comes out in March. It's by a local author, and I highly recommend it.

5. Eaten an entire box of chocolates. (Actually, that was just yesterday, and it took 20 minutes. But, the last piece I had was coconut, so I had to eat lots of Tootsie Rolls, too, to erase the taste memory.)

Good times. Good, good times.
