That list I made a few days ago entering my days off... well I SUCKED at getting things knocked off of it.  I think that the only thing that I actually did accomplish was that I took Caty to the movies.  We went to go see my British hearthrob (Hugh) in the movie "Music and Lyrics".  Movie was ok... at best.  Hugh was delicious... as expected.  But ( Read more... )

I am off for the next several days and have a million and one things that I would like to get accomplished during this time.  I have felt so unproductive lately and out of ( Read more... )

Let's see... I have officially been awake for 4 hours of the start of "vacation" and here's what I have done:  Call work and discuss work issues with Meg for half an hour... check my email and find tons of emails from my boss that require action... research things on the internet for work and submit findings to boss and other general mgrs... that ( Read more... )
