To Do list for the weekend of May 3-4:

Go for a short run
Scoop litter box
Wash dishes
Do laundry -- Two loads folded and put away, one load still in the dryer.
Change sheets and flip mattress
Find old training certificates (2005 and earlier)
Tidy rooms
Vacuum living room and bedroom
Scrub toilet and sink
Scrub bathroom and kitchen floors
Make progress on job applications
Work on portfolio revisions
Go to grocery store
Babysit Saturday evening
Watch hockey game with friends Sunday afternoon

Well, that seems like enough to be getting on with. Especially considering how lazy I am and how unlikely it seems that most of that stuff will actually get done.

I did go for a run this morning. I kept it short, ran for about twenty minutes and did somewhere between one-and-a-half and one-and-three-quarters of a mile. It's hard to tell because I don't have the neighborhood mapped out in distances. But I ran at a faster than 'treadmill usual' pace except on the hills, which there were a lot of, so I think it was a decent short run. I missed my normal Thursday run because my foot was really sore (a combination of new running shoes that don't have as much arch support as they claim and then missing the bus and having to walk all the way home from work with the fourteen lb box of kitty litter in my backpack which seemed to bruise the sole of my already sore foot). I stuck my arch support inserts in today, but I won't be able to tell for a couple of hours if they made any difference or not.

Hm, I should probably go get to work on that nice shiny list I just made. I'd much rather just sit here snuggling with Tooks and watching Mal spaz over his toys, but that would be unproductive. And unproductive is bad. Yes, bad.

Wow! That's some list ... I was pleased to see that you had at least a couple of fun things in there with all the chores!

Congrats on the solo neighborhood run. I hope the new shoes start actually being helpful rather than hurtful soon!

Oh, never fear, even with the worst list in the world, there is always time for fun things.

The arch of my foot doesn't seem to hurt any worse than it does before, so I'm thinking the inserts do the job. They make the shoes a little tight, but not bad.

Heh, your list looks a lot like mine. It's making me feel guilty.

Hopefully, you're doing a better job than me at getting things done. I've started one load of laundry, cleaned the litter box and read SGA pirate!fic. Very productive day, so far, lol.

you're doing better than me. I've got about a paragraph written on my paper edits. *sighs* Then I started thinking about costuming instead.

[auntiemeesh.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I've been thinking about costuming as well. Nothing actually productive, that would lead to progress being made on any particular costume, but just playing with stuff in my head. I kind of want to do Delirium, from Sandman. I do admittedly look a bit older than she's generally portrayed, but that's beside the point, in my mind.

For some reason I'm thinking it would be fun to do a genderbendering version of the Sixth Doctor. I've only seen one example but she's totally awesome. I'm trying to think how I might tailor a coat and skirt for it. Being that I'm terrible at sewing, that is. It's probably a project for next year, you know? I'm still trying to think about picture opportunities with the TARDIS-- should I dress up as a companion (Romana or Sarah Jane or Liz Shaw or Nyssa or someone like that) for pics with others dressed as the Doctor, or I dunno, I could do a version of the Doctor instead... so many choices!

[auntiemeesh.livejournal.com]

I've been wondering what to do to accessorize with the TARDIS as well. I need to spend some time looking at various companions - my memories of the ones I used to know are pretty slim these days. Then maybe I'll be able to pick one to be. I suppose I could also make an attempt at a genderbender Doctor, but I'm not sure who I'd pick. Things to think about...

Looks like you made good progress with that list! Good for you!

Too bad I haven't managed a single thing on the list today. I even cancelled on watching the hockey game. Saturday is usually my day of utter laziness so it seems that having spent yesterday somewhat productively has used up every last single ounce of energy or interest I had in doing anything.
