Vacuuming Cleaning the bathrooms Tidying the house Sweeping the floors Showering šŸ™‚ Folding the laundry and putting it away The pile of stuff on my desk at home Making pizza bun spread Making my New Yearā€™s Resolutions Flossing my teeth Painting the bedroom Installing new light fixtures Finishing all the interior painting, so we can put on new switchplate covers Installing moulding Weeding the front garden Quitting smoking Dieting seriously Exercising seriously ā€¦procrastination is the worst personal trait I have. ā˜¹ ---

Cleaning up the apartment and writing the last 40 or so thank-you notes left over from my wedding in August. (Iā€™ve written over a hundred, but none in the last six weeks.) Also I have two one-page essays to write as make-ups for classes Iā€™ve missed. ---

\*Cutting off tags, filling the stocking, wrapping a couple little gifts \*Cleaning the babyā€™s last rejected bites of lunch off the kitchen floor \*Putting the laundry in the dryer \*Picking up the flyers on the living room floor \*Supper Iā€™m stuck in some sort of internet-induced catatonia. I seem to be frozen in place in front of this computer. Unseasonable weather and no snow just doesnā€™t inspire me to get in gear. Luckily, only the baby is getting presents and at 15 months, sheā€™s not yet critical of my Xmas and housekeeping efforts (or lack thereof). ---

Faxing my paperwork to school to start again on the 8th. Hmmm I should really get on that. ---

Iā€™m supposed to be writing a background guide for students representing the Third Comittee at MSUMUN this spring. More specifically, three pages on ā€œThe Impact of Radical Religionā€, and editing the two parts my assistants wrote into a complete paper. This was supposed to be done on Friday. I donā€™t care too much. Also, Iā€™m putting off writing a five-page honors paper for Intro to International Security. Of course, I kind of donā€™t have the book for this one, so it isnā€™t entirely laziness. ---

Picking up my parents at the airport. :eek: (Just kidding. Leaving right now. Iā€™m a good son.) ---
