Sanity Beach here I come!
What I have done today to prepare for leaving tomorrow for the beach:
1. Gone to work on no sleep. Only made it to a late January deposit. *Sigh* I love my job, but lately I feel very incompetent. I'm going to blame the weird weather, oh, and the flu. Definitely blaming the flu.
2. Cleaned my kitchen, dining room, the kids room (Including chasing out the dust mammoths under the beds, and rearranging the bookshelf so that the short ones would not get pummeled by books when they attempted to retrieve whatever favorite book was at the bottom of the horizontal pile. *Sigh*) and our bedroom.
3. Folded and hung all laundry that had been residing in baskets in our room.
4. Started a load of laundry that is 92% ALL MY CLOTHES!! I have no idea when the last time this ratio was achieved, but I know it's been a while because I don't own very many clothes. (As my poor friends can attest because they see my sorry ass in the same shirts and jeans ALL THE DAMN TIME. They put up with me though because I am cheap and until I lose the rest of my weight I'm not buying a bunch of damn clothes. [For those of you keeping score at home I have lost more than 50 pounds since June of 07. I have thirty odd pounds left to lose. These will undoubtedly be the hardest to lose.] My friends really love me. This most likely means that they are all crazy too.)
5. Realized that I am apparently in a caps mood.
6. Found my luggage for the trip tomorrow.
7. Tried on shorts for the first time in years and realize that out of 4 pairs that I own two of them no longer agree with the idea of staying up on my hips and are instead following gravity's sweet song to the ground. While I am happy about this type of clothing problem, it was potentially problematic until . . .
8. I checked the weather at the beach that I will be staying at: Sunny until I arrive, then cold accompanied by thunderstorms until the day I leave, of course, when it will be warm and sunny again. Happy 30th birthday to me! Sort of fitting for this year I suppose; driving home out of gorgeous weather on the Gulf of Mexico to come home to poop.
What I have not done to prepare for leaving tomorrow for the beach:
1. Pack.
2. Cleaned my office.
3. Any of the massive amounts of homework that were assigned to me over spring break; including my research paper on the creation of the Nation of Islam along with its rise (and its possible fall? I have no idea yet. The paper is due Monday and I haven't even begun. Yay for procrastination!!) in American politics.
4. Gone grocery shopping. Poor Frog will have to brave the grocery with both kids by himself. Think happy thoughts for him please.
