| And half the afternoon now that I look at the clock...
-- Coffee/email/newsgroups
-- Water break
-- Vitamins (I have to have this on the list to cross off or I forget to do
it!)
-- Hit the market, Staples, Radio Shack & the liquor store
-- Started dinner (pulled pork - toss in saucepan w/liquid and forget for a
couple hours)
-- Got my brother to finally empty the dishwasher. (I'm taking this back
over,
because of his schedule I end up doing it most of the time anyway or it took
forever for him to get to it. Today I was just in a bad mood and decided I
wasn't gonna pick up his slack today. I have much less of a problem with
doing it myself than waiting for it to not get done.)
-- Emptied the sink now that the dishwasher is empty. 
-- Currently printing out documents for class.
Now, the printing thing doesn't seem like it should be that big a deal, but
I've been fighting with my printer for the last 3 days trying to do this,
resulting in a lot of wasted time and paper. This morning it ran out of
ink. Got a new cartridge, plus a spare, and of course, it won't print in
black at all now - it won't recognize that ANY cartridge there (old or
new)... My brother has given me a new printer that came w/his laptop and so
I can at least print now. Of course - the receipt for the spare ink
cartridge I can't use? Disappeared. Not in my wallet, or in the bag. The
bag had a split in it from a binder I also bought this morning, and I can
only guess the receipt escaped that way - I'm still going to go back to
Staples tomorrow and beg for them to let me return the spare cartridge.
Still going to try to get a few other things done today despite the fact
that the printer stupidity pretty much put me over the edge for patience...
