Things that happened recently while I was (or should have been) in bed

1. I read some letters that Heather Kloosterman-Smid and Meghan MacKinnon and also the Composite Three wrote to me when I was in high school. Many I recycled because I have absolutely no idea what they were talking about. Most I chuckled at regardless. Some I saved because I just couldn't part with them. Dana, I'm sorry I was too young to realize how special our friendship was.

2. I spoke with Dan Young via Facebook, and we came to an understanding regarding the letter "I" and the word "EYE", and how they might be interchanged in some circumstances to aid comprehension.

3. I spoke to Lynnette via phone. I want her to visit over Easter.

4. I played Rock Band (see #9 to know why this was stupid).

5. I cleaned using Melaleuca products that I ordered and which arrived Wednesday at my door. I hope the novelty doesn't wear off any time soon, because suddenly these products have made cleaning seem fun, so I've done a lot of it. While I should have been in bed, of course.

6. My husband drove me to work, and I felt like I was on a roller coaster, which I hate. (He was driving the speed limit.)

7. I went to work.

8. I DIDN'T go to work, because my boss let me stay in bed. She's super.

9. I didn't watch TV. TV has moving images, and the world is already seeming to move on its own.

10. I paid bills online, and changed preferences on my Aliant account.

11. I watched a lot of House online (though more listened then watched - see #9).

12. I smelled spring, and french fries. These odours are complimentary.

13. I played a lot of Scrabulous.

14. I saw Betty Weatherby. She's across the street at Esther's.

15. I realized how much of my student loan I still owe, and vowed to pay it off post haste now that I figured out how to pay lump sums through online banking. Sheesh.

16. I didn't drink enough water.
