Things I have recently done that I never would have made time for if I hadn't had brain surgery

[befers]

I've been getting a lot done, though I know I could be doing a lot more. My sleeping patterns are still really screwy, but I'm working (not very hard) on that, and I am still mostly avoiding the less fun stuff like filing and cleaning. But all-in-all, I'm being very productive.

1. I am on Lesson 7 (Important Phrases) of my Italian CDs. I can ask how much something costs or where the train station is. I will be a great tourist one day soon. Now all I need is a trip to Italy... :)
   
   
2. I have added more to the blanket I am crocheting for Rob.
   
   
3. I have finished and hung my cork board (that is, a board made out of wine and champagne corks). If I ever got my digital camera back, I would take pictures of these sorts of things to show you all. I know you are desperate for art...
   
   
4. I have watched all but the last episode of Season 1 of Friends.
   
   
5. I have begun a cake decorating class with Liz. It's a lot of fun, and I'm not too bad at it. I suspect I will be making all upcoming birthday cakes... I'd better, actually, to justify the expense on the tools!
   
   
6. I've hung up my framed Broadway posters in my living room.
   
   
7. I've been walking more days than not.
   
   
8. I've become pretty good at making healthy smoothies and I have a freezer full of fruit to prove it.
   
   
9. I've been eating at home far more than I have been eating out.
   
   
10. My entire downstairs is spotless and 100% cleaned up and out.
    
    
11. I've purchased the materials for but not yet hung up a rod for my laundry room.
    
    
12. I've collected the DVDs spread out around my house and alphabetized them on my DVD rack. There are a lot of them, and I mysteriously have two copies of The Truth About Cats and Dogs, so if the extra belongs to you or you would like to have it, let me know.
    

Still, there is always more to do, and there are things I will kick myself for if I don't finish them before I have to go back to work, so I should get cracking on those tomorrow. Someone call me and bug me about that...

Rob and I have a double feature date night planned tomorrow. We are seeing a Sneak Peak of The Terminal and then ladyandromeda, passingfancy, shellefly, and others will join us for Stepford Wives. We've decided to all dress up in Stepford dresses, much as Star Wars fans dress up for the opening night of those movies. I don't know if I have a dress that qualifies, but I'll figure something out... :) Too bad my pedicure this afternoon had to be rescheduled for Saturday. It should be fun, nonetheless. We're seeing the 9:45 showing at the former Funscape, if you want to join us.

C'est tout!
