Mundane pointless stuff

Here’s my Sunday:

I got up around 1:00.

Fired up the internet connection.

Checked email.

Read through the boards (FFF too).

Drove through the chat room.

Took a shower.

Went over to parent’s house to connect computer, fix email.

Went to grocery store, spent $25 on 2 bags of stuff.

Got home and back on the internet.

Checked the boards.

Chatted in the chat room.

Watered the lawn.

Tried to nap, no success.

Back on the boards again.

Contemplating what to have for dinner.
What did you do today

I also spent 5 minutes torturing the dog by ringing the doorbell repeatedly!

< hahaha, can you tell I am bored? >

I did nothing ( well useful anyway ) .
Got up nursing a hangover . Watch some of the European Cup (Soccer) on T.V .

Logged on checked E-mail . ( no e-mails :frowning: )

Went to shop to buy some food ( pizza )

Looked at True Romance on video .

Logged on again and hung around here .

Looked at more T.V.

Spent a couple of hours trying to get a Comodore 64 emulator working . :o

Logged on again and here I am at 2.38am really thinking I should go to bed coz I’m in work in the morning but I’m not tired .

God , I really need a hobby .

Or a girlfriend. :slight_smile:

Gee, techchick, you’re making me wonder about myself.

I got up @ 6:30 (AM) and have accomplished less than you today.

I did the boards, shower and e-mail (well, I will in a minute), and I’m bbq’n dinner right now.

Yawn…

Got up.

Went to church.

Ogled the teeny-bopper in spaghetti straps in front of me.

Found out she’s a friend of my daughter’s.

Felt old.

Went home.

Ate lunch.

Family went shoe shopping.

Logged on here.

Logged off.

Took nap.

Sorted laundry.

Greeted family.

Ate dinner.

Watched Fox’s cartoons.

Forgot several lines that would make good sigs.

Logged back on.

Still to come, logging off, washing dishes, logging on, trying to make my 200th post, logging off, and going to sleep.

As if my life today wasn’t virtual sleep.

9:30 - Got up. Decided to go back to sleep, decision overturned by bladder rudely informing me it wanted emptying. Shuffled out to bathroom, did business.

9:35 - Went downstairs. Sat in front of computer. Melded with computer, stopping only to make an Instant Breakfast.

11:30 - Showered. Forgot to put gel in hair, thus making me look like a moron. Take forever to dress, because I (as usual) am distracted by one of the numerous Calvin and Hobbes books on the floor and sit around for half an hour in my underwear reading.

12:20 - Go downstairs. Meld with computer.

14:00 - Make turkey sandwich and consume in approximately 2 minutes. Return to computer.

18:30 - Dinner.

18:45 - Meld with computer.

21:50 - Become distracted by parents playing Gran Turismo (I’m so proud that they actually figured out how to turn on my PlayStation without my help…it’s a real milestone).

22:10 - Meld with computer. Browse Straight Dope forums.

22:15 - Notice this thread. Post.

This thread almost makes me feel better about myself; at least I’m not a unique sloth.

Like a total idiot, I worked in the garden yesterday in the full heat. Think I got a bit heat stressed, because when I finally broke down and put on the AC in the bedroom, I had a raging case of insommnia. Read until 4 a.m. So…

  • slept until noon
  • did some laundry
  • made some food for the week
  • tried to read, but fell asleep instead
  • woke up, repotted some herbs; weeded flower gardens
  • tossed another load of laundry in
  • turned on 'puter to check email and noodle around here.

A thousand things I could and should have done, i.e. mopping the floors, work on some reports I brought home, etc. but didn’t do any of 'em.

May I be honest? I hate Sundays. They usually end up a depressed bridge between work at home staring me in the face, and anticipating another week of work at work.

Bleah.

Veb

Got up at 10:00, made coffee, read paper, watched French Open on TV, showered, dressed.

Went to Sunday brunch with my boyfriend. Helped him pack up a truckload of his stuff to take to Greenville. He left. I came home, ordered a pizza for dinner, talked to my mom on the phone, got on the SDMB.

My boyfriend starts his new job in Greenville tomorrow. We will only be seeing each other on weekends for the next year or so. :frowning:

I have GOT to get to work on my thesis this week. I told my advisor I’d have a draft, or something resembling one, to him by the middle of June.

I worked today, wandering around town aimlessly waiting for one of my stores to need my help, noone paged me ALL day long!!

Wandered home around 5pm. Made supper. Ate. Piled dishes in the sink…leave them for hubby to do.

Went outside to see what my kid was up to, she had dug a hole in my driveway 1 1/2 feet accross by 2 1/2 feet long by 2 feet deep ( a couple of other kids helped).

Watched hubby fill in the hole.

Tossed my little archelogist(sp?) in the tub and then in bed.

Flipped through the stations, and watched x-Files.

Check out the excitement on the board, and post.

Thinking it’s time for bed… all this excitement is exhausting. :slight_smile:

Read Dear Abby/Ann Landers and the comics
Waited for my sis to get off the comp

845-10pm - Read bedtime story to son. Repeat for the next hour with him saying, “peepee pee pee” every ten minutes. Place on toilet with no success. re dress and re diaper and repeat until after the tenth time, he whizzes. Cheer him on like he just liberated France all by himself.

Sitting here with hubby halfway around the world, I have to ask, Shirley. Re:dodging hubby’s amorous advances all day. WHY??? :confused:
