With the intention of doing things in a less obsessive manner, here is what I accomplished this evening:
- laundry
- paid bills
- washing-up
- answered a bunch of e-mails (some of them very old)
- fired off a couple of e-mails to try and get paid for stuff I did in November/December
- freed some space on my hard drive (hopefully the iBook will stop freezing)
- sorted some school papers in a file.
I was very ambitious, however, so there are a certain number of things I didn’t do:
- spend 30 minutes marking tests (too tired, no use doing it when you’re going to make mistakes)
- clean up the broken glass on the balcony
- write a few posts
- write down the last two months’ expenses in my big spreadsheet.

There was a category called “most likely to have a cheese sandwich” to make fun of blogger who have nothing more exciting to blog about than what they eat. I have nothing more exciting to blog about here than my “accomplishments”

With all the talk about how to get your blog noticed, I still like the things that I read where we can share who we are. Today (Sunday 2/19) I did not accomplish a whole lot except try to get my Flickr pictures to upload to my WordPress blog automatically.

[...] In February my beloved ibook started freezing. OK, maybe the hard drive was a bit full. Sometime durin gthe month of March the frightening “failing motherboard” symptoms reappeared, so I gave my favourite Apple retailer my ibook for a transplant. A couple of weeks later, my ibook was back home, but it didn’t take long for things to go really really wrong. [...]
