New to-do to you

Feb 09, 2011 11:04

Yesterday seemed to work pretty well for me, so I'll try again today:

Write the Head of College a memo
Write 500 words of OYM
Set up Ektron training for myself
Write agenda for Status Update
Do status update with boss and bossboss
Do phone call with Head of College
Rewrite memo as bullet points for College - moved to tomorrow morning
Write a Famous Author's monthly report
Write 500 words on Nocturne, Pitch or Gulfcoast
Create the Spring ECD sound calendar  - started. Finished February and ran into a SNAFU of epic proportions.
Make sure R gets his suit
Go to clothing swap with friends
Go to R's, eat something and collapse. Also maybe watch something.

In ecstatic news, Woot! recently had a sale on heated throws. I got one, thinking I'd surprise R with it, only R got two. Because we think too much alike. It's the same company as the electric blanket he got me for my bed and we - fortunately - got all different colours, though all ones we both like. But it came today! And I happened to be wearing a dress and leggings today and it's freezing so this is excellent. I am wrapped up in it.

Yesterday we saw Diehard and then saw (and met) Alan Rickman discussing Diehard. It was excellent. He told thumbelinablues she was going to have a fantastic life. It involved adorable hand gestures. Also discussion of what her gravestone would read. He's both hilarious, bitchy and lovely. (Bitchy to people who ask dumb questions, and in a catty funny way and then he was nicer and answered; not to us.) His smile and voice feel so...comforting. I kind of wanted to ask for a hug. (I was holding coats, we were both holding wineglasses. It didn't happen.) He also seems like he really dislikes photos.

Today I break 6,000 on OYM and snuggle a blanket. Also hopefully prove to College that they want to do things my way.

ETA: I keep forgetting I really really need to add a "deal with stuff that comes up during the day" section to my to-do list. Arg.

ETA 2: Things I am discovering include the fact that I am much more productive in the morning/early afternoon. I don't think this is time specific, so much "how many hours worked already" specific. So I need to make sure I put all the IMPORTANT and HARD shit in the morning and leave things like create a 2 line report out of my readings! for the late afternoon.

Also take a nap under the electric blanket. CAN I DO THAT?

So for to accomplish the last three things on my list. But what if I don't write at all? I will be disappointed in myself! UHOH.

alan rickman, work less ordinary, life less ordinary
