…if I can keep this short. Bullet points are good for that, right?

• Am now feeling much better. My sinuses are still clogged and my hearing comes and goes, but my throat isn’t sore and I don’t feel all that sick. At least 100% improvement over Monday.
• and her dog Lucy are gone all this week, so I spent much of Monday night and part of Tuesday de-dogging the house. Really, all that means is a lot of vacuuming. It feels so clean now, though!
• Front room also appears a little cleaner, though all I did was move a chair.
• and will be in town this weekend - we have tentative dinner plans Friday night.
• I forgot my iPod today, which I realized while walking to the bus stop, but it was too late to turn around. This means I changed my mind again as to whether I would buy textbooks after work or go directly to Target.
• I’m quite frustrated that I can’t get access to any of my class information until next Tuesday. All I want is a syllabus and homework/reading schedule. Sigh.
• I spent a great deal of time on Tuesday laying in bed watching stuff I’d recorded and knitting until my fingers hurt.
• But I also took out the recycling, trash, changed the filter in the fish tank, and went grocery shopping.
• called last night from the coffee shop near my house. I decided not to go, since it would invariably mean that I would get to bed much too late. Sad.
• sent more baby pictures, and they’re super-cute.
• I was finally able to install Google Browser Sync on my work computer, after several unsuccessful tries. Now I can bookmark things at work and check them out at home. Amazing. Easier than sending myself links via email.
• My Starbucks is starting this new card system where you buy 9 drinks up-front and then you get your 10th for free. This means I have to decide if I want to cough up the money in one chunk every 2 weeks, or if I want to continue with the illusion that my coffee habit is not that expensive.
• Maybe I should try to re-install Microsoft Money on my new computer, now that I have internet access. I have been much more responsible with my finances lately….
• Speaking of internet access, has not requested our share of the money for that in several months. This means at some point she’s going to want in the vicinity of $100. I’m not cool with that. She also still has stuff in the apartment, like a glass tabletop, a mantle-sized mirror, and a boccie ball set. It’s been over 6 months since she moved out - at what point do I get to claim ownership of the boccie ball set for myself and toss the rest of the stuff to the curb?
• I’m very excited about my classes this upcoming semester. That may change rapidly, but at the moment, I’m positive. I realized all of a sudden that they’re all history classes (instead of breaking it up with an econ class or something), which could get a little heady, but I think I can do it. They’re all different eras/places, so I shouldn’t get confused.
• My nose is making weird noises when I breathe, and Kleenexes aren’t solving the problem. I know you wanted to know that.
• I might actually be “too chesty” for the shirt I’m wearing. How is that physically possible? It must be the bra. Hopefully the shirt will stretch a little bit after wearing, because it’s cute and I like it. It has Spandex in it. Otherwise, I might have to get a little snap, or succumb to the fad of wearing vests, which I am striving to avoid completely. (Bad flashbacks to all of junior high, when made many vests for me and I wore them all the time because they were cool. At one point, I had 10 in my closet. Note that at no point in junior high was I actually cool.)
• Just to leave you with a thought other than my chest…
• I’ve found several new blogs lately that I’m enjoying reading. And I can now do the Jumble in the paper (which always escaped me before - watch out next time we play Scrabble!).
