So who is multi-tasking tonight?
Not only am I a Friday night Lounge Lizard, I am:

Printing my 2007 photo album (bad girl downloads her photos right away and then spends the month of January laying out the past year's .jpgs in an HP album program churning through ink cartridge after ink cartridge. You'd think I'd learn to do this throughout the year, but noooooo.)

Listening to my iPod (Plain White T's just finished and now I have a Hootie and the Blowfish song on...no critizing the tunes please)

Ignoring my children (Animal Planet is on the television and I haven't seen any blood lately so I can't be too bad a mother)

1. Working on a playlist for a business trip next week
I'll be in a van with three of my co-workers for 14 hours. We each get to pick music for one fourth of the trip. I'm looking forward to broadening their musical horizons, whether they like it or not.

17. Additional info about those songs is available upon request if you're serious
Since I'm typing "liner notes" while I do these things.

But since I'm also drinking right now you might have to wait a day or two before I have the notes in any coherent form.

12. Our freecycle has become a joke.
I have had some luck there, but I have more luck on Craigslist.

I have my eye on two barstools that just got posted 40 minutes ago. Hoping to hear whether they are already spoken for.

11. Intermittently perusing DU
Edited on Fri Jan-11-08 08:59 PM by hippywife
and the site for our local food co-op, discussing with my husband the pulling together of so far loose plans for this year's garden, doing laundry, and also ignoring the dishes in the sink, of which there are legion. Oy! Been a long tiring week.

:hi:

28. I'm eating a So Delicious mint ice cream sandwich and serving as a jungle gym for kittens
who are trying to steal my dessert (they already ate half my sandwich, because my cats are weird and love tofurkey.) LeftyKid is studiously ignoring me. I'm halfassed reading reviews on webcams- I think I decided, I'm just looking for red flags like "it exploded and my house burnt down- also the picture is blurry in low light" before I buy the thing.
