gateslacker: (books)

I have much waiting in the way of entertainment! I still haven't watched Atlantis or BSG, though I managed to record the latter on a repeat showing, and I received the former thanks to a download from scarym1 (it's not letting me add the lj user..new menu not fully operational perhaps?) which really saved me where "Off the Grid" was concerned. (Very enjoyable but not the caliber of "Ethon"). I am reading Pride and Prejudice because many friends on my f-list have read it since adulthood and LOVE it. I haven't read it since High school. Hey, guys, my favorite character is Mr. Bennett, by the way. Yes, I am a hopeless romantic...NOT. No, really, he is my favorite character....LOL!  There is also a mythology book I am  reading concurrenty. Besides the typical sci-fi fare, I also have several "Mystery Diagnosis" and HGTV programs to watch.

Now, you may ask, where am I going with this. My point, to which I will get eventually, is that I have all this fun stuff to do...even moreso than normal, and what am I doing? Organizing everything instead. I have thrown away every plastic CD holder that I own, kept the jackets, and organized them alphabetically in one large CD case. I have gone through all my papers and pitched what I don't need and organized what I do need.  Brandon has his own file for report cards and other memorabilia. I wonder what has gotten into me..LOL! Oh well, maybe it will extend to the closets ;-)

I also paid off my vehicle today! Wheeeeee. It's all mine now. Time for it to fall apart. I still had a few more months but thought it would better serve me to use part of my tax refund in this manner. I am also seriously considering the idea of going back to school to get my MSN. If I make it through the admissions hoops and hooplah then we will know I am serious. If I am too lazy to do all that crap, then it really isn't the time. I just think it would be nice if someone would pay me to go to school....LOL. I am NOT relishing the idea of spending all that money and/or borrowing money.

Brandon finally let me cut that mop off his head. He looks sooooooo much better. Of course, he is well blessed in the way of hair so it took the poor girl over an hour to cut his hair. Then, I had grocery shopping to do and was running late the entire rest of the day. 

I am looking forward to an outing for Tea with dm_lunsford and de23 tomorrow! Wheeeeeee.....

And finally, I want to wish everyone a Happy Valentine's day. And thanks to soniag for the virtual rose. I don't really pay too much attention to this holiday anymore although it is my wedding anniversary and had tragic events not intervened, I would have been married thirteen years! THIRTEEN! Gosh, I am getting old! I took the wedding tape and Brandon's first birthday tape to Walgreens for sendoff to transfer them to DVD. VHS tapes only have so much life expectancy, after all. Both recordings, which I managed to watch without blubbering (GO ME!), were still in pretty good condition so I hope the DVD/VCD/ whatever it is will have at least the same quality.
