Things acheived today
Sep. 16th, 2008 06:35 pmToday has been pretty productive:
- Got a monitor and set up my docking station so that I'm now working on a keyboard, mouse and monitor rather than the lappie gizmos when I'm at my desk. Much more comfortable and I can also plug in the graphical tablet to play with graphics later.
- Downloaded XAMPP to install so that I can make adjustments to Haven Reviews if necessary. Note to self: fix professional website in IE7.
- Took my application form into the SPCA and starting the process to adopt some kittens. Also found out that they need volunteer cat cuddlers so I might have found somewhere to go on slow afternoons when I need comfort :-)
- Bought cat carrier, litter tray and some bowls in preparation. Joined membership scheme at local pet store.
- Applied for jobs and made my resume searchable on the big job websites.
- Looked through Monster's list of potential interview questions. Mental note: revist questions tomorrow morning and make notes on possible answers.
When I write it all down, it sounds like I've been really busy except it doesn't feel like I've been busy. More like I've faffed around all day except I've achieved a ton of stuff. Tomorrows plans are:
- Prepare for job interview
- Go to job interview
- Get hair cut and coloured after job interview
- Eat Dairy Queen hot fudge sundae if in need of comfort after interview
- Apply for more jobs
It all sounds terribly grand and grown-up, but I don't feel it. However, I suspect that hormones are playing games on me and that's why I don't feel as good about today's activities as I should. Hmmm.
This evening I'll sit down with some knitting or possibly sew an arm onto my sister's cardigan. I tried The Fringe last week and I'm not sure about it. I might give it another go tonight if there is nothing else on but it didn't catch me quite the way I thought that it would.
Feel free to agree or try to change my mind, though :-)
ETA: Why am I crazy? It's the season premier of House tonight! The Fringe is on at 10pm if I'm still awake to watch it. Guess that will tell me whether I'm persevering with that one...
