This morning I saw a girl walking her dog down the street, while reading a book.
The other day I dreamed about characters in a book I had just finished. Book 6 of the Dark Tower, by Stephen King. I can’t remember it exactly, but Eddie and Jake were talking to me and stuff. I wasn’t on the quest with them, or anything.
Monday I celebrated 11 months of being cigarette free!
Anybody want to share their mundanity?
I have two miniature dachshunds - a boy and a girl (brother and sister).
We go running around the apartment complex we live in. There’s lot of rabbit and chipmunks and the like living on the grounds. We like to chase the rabbits.
Today during our run my girl caught her first animal - some kind of rodent. I made her drop it, and she only had it for a couple seconds, but when she did drop it it wasn’t moving. I hope it was just in shock.
I think she’s very proud of herself, though.
I downloaded ROMs for Dragon Warrior 1 and 4. I played both for about 5 minutes, enough to realize that having to open a menu to talk to someone is really annoying.
I went swimming at my friend’s house today.
I played Metroid Prime earlier today. I went to the Phazon Mines, but then I remembered that I never got the Wavebeam. Since it’s much easier to beat the boss of that level with the wavebeam, I went back to the Chozu ruins and got it.
I got offered my job today. Going from temp-to-hire to hired.
Bought Prince’s newest, Musicology, today. While he still sounds good enough to make me cream my pants with every note, I’m not so much a fan of jazz, which he has drifted to the last couple CDs. Let’s get back to the freaky funk, baby.
Last night while setting my alarm I unknowingly changed the time. So this morning I turn the alarm off and go back to sleep (one of my many talents). I wake up and freak out “It’s 7 o’clock- Oh my god!!” Sprint out of bed, wake the kids, stumble into the kitchen to discover it’s only 6. Coffee is already brewing (auto) and I have pleeeeenty of time… aaaah.
We had a huge storm here today. I went on a walk this evening, and saw that over 5 trees were hit by lightning, and yet our large, dead trees never got hit.
My mom pays more attention my my guinea pig then me. :dubious:
Ditto on flamingbanana’s storm. I had to be outside at work during the worst part of it. As soon as I got inside, it cleared up. Awesome. :rolleyes:
I won the word search race that I had with my two co-workers.
I celebrated 16 days smoke-free. Yay!
I made poached eggs and toast for breakfast. I love them but never want to make the effort.
My new coffee maker came in the post today!
And while i was happy that my coffee maker came, I was bummed because it wasn’t my white elephant.
I took my puppy for a run, and later gave him a bath (he needed it.)
I watched the movie narc.
I work three 12-hour days per week and am off four days. There’s really no reason why I don’t have a spotless house and a perfect yard, but I’m just so damned lazy. The first things I have to do when I get up are: get dressed, feed the animals, get the pool going (clean out skimmer, check water level, turn on pump). Sometimes I don’t get those things done until 11 or so.
Some days I get motivated by promising myself a reward once I’ve accomplished a list of things. Today my reward is that I get to go to WalMart and look for some things I want for flamingbananas’s dream catcher. Surfing the SDMB is not one of the things on my to-do list.
Yay! happy dance
I have a sqirming one-year-old on my lap right now
