15 days meme
Day 01: Introduce yourself. List your likes and dislikes.
Day 02: Make a bulleted list of everything that happened in your day.
- Woke up a little late: around 10 a.m. I contemplated my dream from the night before, wherein I was drowning in a warehouse. (The tide was coming in. There were also waterslides involved.)
- Got dressed. Ate cereal. Rounded up my library books and filled my sprayer with a milk and water solution.
- Drove to the farmer's market, bought strawberries and BBQ sauce for my dad.
- Drove to the library. Returned many books, and checked out many more: the cookbook
evilhippo recommended; One Day for the
pulped_fictions book discussion; a guide to CSS and another "For Dummies" guide to CSS, HTML, and XHTML; and a gardening book. The librarian I am currently obsessed with was not there.
- Drove out to the garden plot. Weeded, spread mulch, watered, and then sprayed the plants with the milk and water solution. (To prevent Powdery Mildew.)
- Came home, ate turkey sandwich and grapes for lunch.
- Went online, checked messages, read through Book Rec Meme, etc.
- Made strawberry jam. (See pictures.)
- Cleaned up-ish.
- Back online.
- Grabbed a beer and took the cat outside. Took photos of the back gardens.
- Uploaded photos to Flickr.
- Ate dinner with my parents: chicken kebobs, corn on the cob, and rice. Very yum.
- More playing around with Flickr and various other websites.
- Went bra shopping. Buy 2, Get 2 free at Lane Bryant! Remember the store in which I threw a temper tantrum like a crazy person when I couldn't figure out their signage, and then had a think about it and went back and apologized, again like a crazy person? Yeah, that store. Man, I needed bras: I don't know what's up with my breasts lately, but there just might be an evil plot against them. I'm pretty sure all of my bras have been rigged to self-destruct, as I've had more underwires pop out in the last month...
- My life was not meant for bullet points: I ramble too much.
- Ate vanilla ice cream with newly-made strawberry jam on top. GOOOOOD!
- More internet.
- Which brings us to: now! I won't be in bed for another few hours, but trust me: you can pretty much fill in the rest. (Internet, internet, internet, read book, bed. The end!)

After:
(Story time: my new journal layout has no marker selected for unordered lists, so they just appear as a block text. This displeased me, so I set out to change it. It took me about TWENTY MINUTES to figure out how to change the marker from "none" to "circle" in the style sheet, but I have done it! Hooray! /no1curr) (These are the moments when being OCD makes me want hit things, BTW.)
