Well, the grant proposal is written (all except for that last edit), including cover letter, budget and budget justification. I also went to the supermarket. I had almost no food in the house, just some pasta, rice and peanut butter!

It was beautiful if a bit breezy (25 mph is "breezy" here) and everyone and their grandmother was out shopping.

And I had nearly finished unloading my shopping cart when I realized I was in the "10 items or less" lane. Oh no! There was no one behind me so I didn't get any dirty looks. Whew.

wild_rose, congrats on finishing the grant! And for escaping the icy glares of other shoppers!

malcha, sometimes real life experience is better than what you can get from books! :)

Doing nothing all day really takes it out of a girl. I'm going to see if I can stay awake until the end of my show - I've already fallen asleep once - and then go to bed.

Good night!

Morning!  *snags cinnamon bun, sets out pot of tea for the non-coffee types, covers it carefully with a teacosy*

Morning, Wegie, Erictho, Paddington, and Malcha!

I am awake, have eaten some breakfast, and need to do the dishes before I get in trouble (or before they become sentient).

[paddington_bear]

I've exercised, showered, and laundry has been started. Lunch is almost ready. And it's almost time again for skinny, glittery women to be gliding across the ice. :)  There are some items that probably should be added to my list, but I'll leave them off for now.

But we the plump and matte get to stay slumped on our futons, right?

I'm just about to brew tea and settle back to copyright. 

On the way home from church I wickedly bought the first two seasons of Supernatural on DVD at the used books/DVDs store.

Plump and matte. I like it! Naturally the rest of us remained slumped.

Laundry has been completed. Sunday paper has been read.

We have just put up the Christmas tree, which looks lovely from the outside lighting up the bay window, and we have put the lighted deer Mama gave us in the front yard, and put garland, ribbons, and lights on the railings to the porch and a wreath on the door. Yes, it's way too early but the Jingle Bell run is today in our neighorhood, so we thought we should try to get in the spirit for the crowds milling about.

Oh, look -- 27 papers to grade!

I can't tell you how much I do not feel like writing a paper about copyright.
