All day, I keep having this feeling like I’m forgetting a project or two, and that might be because I have A LOT to do in the next ten days. Allow me to delineate everything & then I’ll get back here 10 days hence and see how I fared.
Today (31Oct) – Work. Trick’r’Treating with Owen at the Mall, then coming home to pass out candy to the locals.
01Nov – 11:45 appointment to get my haircut at my sister’s salon. I gotta remember to bring my laptop so she can update her iPod. In the afternoon, I need to call into a conference call so I can hear all the rules and requirements of Video the Vote, which I signed up for. Also, I have to smack the pack of yeast so that I can brew beer on Sunday. Set the clock back before hitting the pillow.
02Nov – Friends coming over for dinner and to watch me brew beer. I’d also like to video-tape some of this for a how-to filmlet.
03Nov – Work. Going to a meeting for Video the Vote for one last training session.
04Nov – Work. Want to leave right at 3:00 to get home in time to stand in line & vote. Bringing my camera. Need to be on hand to film any voting problems that arise in my area between then and 7:00.
05Nov – Work. Leaving early to go to a routing physical to make sure I’m not filled with the drugs I work on at work. Going straight from there to guitar lessons.
06Nov – Work. Hosting Atheists Talk TV Show in the evening.
07Nov – Work. During lunch break, meeting via phone with a woman from the foundation that is offering writing grants (with the hope that this will help score me the grant). Running in a 6K race sponsored by my employer.
08Nov – Lunch with grandparents.
09Nov – The beer might be ready to bottle. Also, the grant proposal is due on the 10th, so I should have it all prepared today & ready to drop off tomorrow.
There! In between all that, I need to find time to finalize the latest issue of MA, work on the grant proposal, monitor the beer and practice guitar. I think some friends might want some assistance with their kitchen floor tiling, too.
I’ll write again around the 10th to report back.
Now back to work…
So far, I’m keeping up with my busy schedule.
I had a ton of stuff to do at work yesterday, so I showed up at 5:45 in the morning. I was worried about the polls, but the voting process went smoothly for me.
Didn’t like Video the Vote. Not gonna do that again.
I’m a little behind on my grant proposal – can’t seem to find time to work on it.
Relax, don’t worry, Have a Homebrew!
I’d love to…but not right before a 6K!
Here I am, writing on the 10th as promised.
I did everything in the above schedule with the exception of the phone meeting set up for last Friday. I tried to call her, but she didn't answer. Later, she sent me an email wondering why I didn't call, and I called her out on it. So…that makes me think my chances of getting the grant dropped even more.
Anyway, I just have one stop on the way home tonight & then I'm done with all this crazy stuff for a while.
Life is back to normal for a few days.
A “routing physical” on Nov 5th?! Was it painful? What part did they take from you? (hopefully some of your cold black heart… :P)
