Moronic things I’ve done this week:
- I spilled half a smoothie in the hallway, far enough down the hallway that the stain cannot clearly be attributed to me, but moronic nonetheless. And yes, I did my best to scrub the skim milk out of the carpet.
- I spilled a quarter of a smoothie on my sweater, while driving to work. I now own a Tide pen and several packets of Shout Wipes.
- I am not very smooth…ie. Nor fun….ie.
- I put three of Nick’s white shirts in the wash with three blue shirts. Nick now owns three light blue shirts.
- I dropped a roll of stamps into the mail box. Unattached to letters. Fortunately, this happened 1 minute before the 5 o’clock pickup, so I, um… asked the letter carrier for my stamps back. She was not amused. Remind me to avoid that particular drop box for a few weeks.
- I tried to get some errands done, but arrived to the store 2 hours before it was open. So I touched Christmas ornaments in Pier 1 for an hour, touched cookbooks in Barnes and Noble for another hour and then spent a whopping 10 minutes in the store once it finally opened.
Slightly less moronic things I’ve done this week:
- I baked a pan full of spiced apple muffins. They tasted amazing and no fires were started nor dogs poisoned.
- I succeeded in clearing off my desk, which had been buried in Leaning Towers of Pisas (of paper) for months.
- I went to the doctor and made a hair appointment. They’re unrelated, and one is decidedly less important, but they both require appointments I didn’t want to get greedy with the star-shaped bullet points.
- I went for a run after being lazy for, well, since the last race.
Completely unmoronic things I participated in, but cannot take credit for:
- I spent some great quality time with friends and family this week. Attention, Dad: I am hanging out with you next weekend whether you like it or not. (He was away and didn’t get to participate in our impromptu family reunion slash meet the dog slash move furniture out of the condo so new furniture could be moved in.)
- My sister and I (and two other lovely bridesmaids) were fitted for our dresses for Jimmy and Colleen’s wedding. The dresses are gorgeous.
- A complete stranger told me all about her plans for decorating her Christmas tree. At face value this might seem totally weird and/or creepy, but her ideas were really creative and you know I love Christmas. Or maybe I am weird and/or creepy and was fortunate enough to happen upon one of my kind while killing time in Pier 1.
- I spent a few hours at Boston Arts Academy, listening to students present their final project ideas and scoring their proposals– something I look forward to every year.
Un-categorized:
- I ate an entire bag of cheese doodles.
What the heck did you do this week?
