Jan. 2nd, 2005 03:59 pmIt has been a mostly lazy, unproductive and lounge-y sort of long weekend. (And cold! Don't forget the cold! It felt much warmer when we were out today, and then I came home and looked at our spiffy new indoor-outdoor digital thermometer and discovered that it was *9* degrees. That's sad.)
And yet, today has not been a total loss. We went to Target and started spending money on baby stuff, and scoped out possibilities for what we want when we do get around to registering. (It's just a lot of STUFF. Where will we put it all?) We bought a cute little outfit - blue and green stripes with a dinosaur on it which is no doubt meant to be worn by a boy - and admired a lot of boy clothes. We discussed how our mutual predilection for bright blues and reds and greens (as opposed to pink) was likely to turn our little girl into a dyke. (Now, will that qualify her to be a baby dyke?)
I finished writing a cover letter and spiffing up ye olde resume to apply for the managerial position at work.
I finished my crocheting project last night, and have a beautiful blanket almost 3x3 feet square.
I read a good chunk of one of my new Xmas books. Also flipped more through some baby books. Bought a few presents for myself on Amazon (I had a credit that needed using).
I've straightened up some of the piles of crap - crafty projects, future crafty projects, books, presents not yet put away - that are everywhere.
So I might almost be ready to go back to work tomorrow. But not quite, I'm sure..... :)
