In which the heroine contemplates purple hair, beer, yoda costumes, novel writing, and graduate school...

I'm excited about getting things done today. Last night was relaxing and fun; Hope, Inky, and I hung out at Inman Perk. Inky and Hope worked on drawing and I embroidered. We got home after 8 and I stuck the kid in the bed. Then Inky and I ate pizza and watched Iron Man.

Today, however, is going to be super-busy-productive day. Hope is at grandma's and Inky is working tonight.

This morning I already accomplished getting supplies at Mall*Wart. Go me.

Right now I'm at work (shhhhhhh) and I have a mega-list of things to get done at work; behold:
  • count the register, roll coinage from copy machines, balance accounts, get deposit ready
  • fulfill and track stats for interlibrary loan borrowing and lending
  • plan a campus event
  • organize ordering and newsletter files
  • do a two displays (including a creepy halloween one)

When I get home the real business starts:

  • clean up house
  • scrub bathroom
  • dye hair dark brown and purple
  • tweeze eyebrows
  • read The Italian
  • drink as much coffee as humanly possible
  • listen to Fleet Foxes obsessively
  • figure out how to make an 8 year-old nerd a Yoda costume by next week
  • think about my novel plot for NaNoWriMo
  • watch some Vincet Price movies while knitting and drinking a Blue Moon Harvet Brew beer.
  • once I'm drunk start filling out grad. school applications for a MASTERS IN ENGLISH.

Much to do!

What if the mermaid meets an evil Sea witch who makes a deal with her?

Masters in English??! Wha-what? Very cool, my dear. As is the Blue Moon. Wish I had a sixer of those right about now.

Have a fantabulous day!
