Things to do
Some day, I'm going to make a computer with an inbuilt cup holder, just to see if people try putting CDs in it.
Well, that'll teach me to spend all day looking at Computer Stupidities instead of... well, anything more productive really. On the bright side, I did manage to figure out what's being done about various Christmas presents and I should be able to order them tomorrow.
Of course, I told myself I'd have them ordered by last Friday at the latest. Ho-hum.
Anyway, I'm hoping that I might be a bit more useful tomorrow. I've been really tired all day today, most likely because, despite my best intentions and average effort, I still went to bed after midnight... yesterday? This morning? Let's go with last night.
I've been meaning to make an informal little to do list for some time now so I may as well do it now. I'm unsure as to how I could make an official to do list but that's beside the point. Here's what I reckon I need to get done over the coming days and weeks, in no particular order. Unless there's some kind of sub-conscious thing going on, determining the order in which they enter my mind.
Write some of The Grey Line
Write some comedy stuff
Get the VersusCOM podcast going again
Sell any retrogaming stuff that I have duplicates of (ie, the 7 NESi)
Tidy my room so that I've got more space and some breathable air
Finish up my Computing project to a respectable standard (should try to do this fairly soon, so I don't forget how everything works)
Complete other schoolwork such as Maths questions and Physics research
Order those Christmas presents
Work on my Linux box, as well as the family computer
Complete various games, inc. HL2: Ep 2, Portal, Phantom Hourglass and about half a dozen others
That's more or less it for now. Surprisingly/depressingly it's not unlike the lists I made at the start of the summer holidays, almost six months ago. And the Easter holidays before them.
Oh, well. I'm going to head off to bed. And I've just realised that I didn't bring up my usual dose of painkillers to have before bed and everyone else is already asleep, so it looks like I'll be going without tonight. I've been cutting back anyway, I guess. Only problem is, it's been slightly worse than normal today since the dressing's been loose and packing's fallen out.
I know, I know. It's disgusting and unpleasant to read about. Trust me, it's worse if you're sitting on it and writing about it.
