I haven't been out of my house as much as I should lately, or at least not to things that are nice. In fact I have been orbiting the gravity well that is CityVille and CastleVille, which sucks powerfully, and not in a good way, so here for my and your edification is a list of recent achieverations.
Had my hair did - this was an expense and a bit of a time waster on a whim, but I am chosing to see it as a Good Thing cos my hair is now did, and doesn't suck.
Made a giganormous pot of nomtastic broth, basicially by putting a smoked hough (£1.89) in a pot with onion, garlic, carrot, a floppy courgette, and a well soaked and rinsed mixture of dried split peas, flageolets and barley. It made 8 servngs and I had one for lunch today and it was AWESOME. The seasoning was a possibly weird mix of juniper berries, bay leaves, peppercorns, brown mustard and hing.
Bought the key part of my BiCon Ball costume
Consistently took meds and nose spray stuff at defined times of day
Decided on domain names for new project(s) which are now registered (watch this space)
Went backwards and forwards and backwards again in knitting and am now definitely going FORWARDS andit all makes sense
Obtained and read The Long Earth. I recommend it to everyone in the whole world ever
Joined LIbrary Elf and renewed my books before they went overdue.
Arranged a new tivo box and wireless modem from Virgin, which have arrived and so far don't suck.
Did small amounts of housework so the place is looking OK
