Well, I finished upgrading to iTunes plus, and am now finishing up synching my work and home libraries; however, I'm not sure that really counts as productivity.

I'm preparing for a meeting and setting up Liv so she can play games on pbskids.org.

It's between Grover and Kermit for me. Grover earned a lot of childhood love from me for The Monster at the End of This Book. Also for "Over, Under, Around and Through."

I am at work and was hella productive. I am at lunch right now. Having a day and a half away from work kinda made me. I've piles and piles of stuff to get done, including giving boss an approximation of what percentage of time I spend on all of my tasks. (I suspect this is because we've been asked to cut our production tremendously).

I've decided why I am avoiding finishing the draft of this document--it sucks.

And oh, Dick Francis died.

Aww, man. That makes me sad.

I am at home after a very successful trip to the zoo with Dylan and our neighbors (whose son is one of Dylan's best friends).

Now my feet hurt because I need new boots. I think I shall send DH out for groceries while I lounge.

We spent the whole weekend eating Thai food in Portland and shopping at outlet malls. And Powell's.

We bought a new suitcase (to replace the one that conveniently broke on the trip), a bunch of food at Harry and David's and Trader Joe's, shirts and belts at Brooks Brothers, a new pair of jeans for me, socks, kitchen utensils, and a couple of new shirts for work.

I almost bought these shoes.

And finally, as a Valentine's Day gift, my husband talked me into this Coach purse. (Note: that poster is not me. I don't refer to my purses as "she".)

I have some thoughts about what I might do, but right now I am serving the master by having a good lap for a cat nap

I am having a normal workday, except my commute was about 3 million times more pleasant without the high school students on the bus!

I also feel like crap-- my face hurts-- my sinuses and nose sort of feel like I got hit hit a bat across the nose. My eyes hurt, and I just feel bad (nauseated and tired). I have felt like this in the afternoons for about a week, and on and off for several months. I feel like I never quite get sick enough to go to the doctor-- no real congestion or mucous or cough-- but this could end any time.

That is odd Sophia. I hope it stops soon. Like NOW.

I started my thyriod med last week, along with a new course of iron for my anemia. They said it may take 4 weeks or more before I feel a difference. I wanna feel better NOW. I have a feeling I'll be headed home for a nap soon, then work the rest of the day from home. Joy.
