So NSG what have you on your to do list for today?

Myself:

Well first go and submit my final journalism piece of the semester and once again have some freedom! Then I need to phone my future landlord and talk to him about the contract he has sent me. I can't afford to move in during August and pay rent for that. I'm going to try and see if I defer my contract to September or something...

Moi?

1) Buy food, loo roll and tissues.
2) Return books to library.
3) Try and arrange a meeting with my supervisor.
4) Watch Diagnosis Murder.
5) Put dates on my calendar.

Who needs twitter when you have NSG?

1. Shopping for food and toiletries.
2. Complete composition of backlogged illustrations in indesign.
3. Decide on the paper stock I'll be using.
4. Print up a prototype.
5. Perfect bind the illustrations, evaluate, loop back to step two until I'm exhausted and/or satisfied.

1. get into the office [done]
2. team meeting [done]
3. finish commenting system on website A [done, even though it fucked up a few other things... like all the title tags :headbang:]
4. probably some graphic design (photoshop, indesign) [not done, will do tomorrow]
5. get back on with website B, hope mysql stuff works out ok [actually, worked on site C]
6. go home [done]
7. eat [done, pie]
8. star trek [done x3 episodes]
9. sleep [soon]

1. Nothing
2. Nothing
3. Nothing

1. Get this CVS(PServer) interface to SURE working.
2. Oh well, I'll look into that whenever I've got time to spare (like right now;))

Just finished posting birthday cards. Now need to finish my dissertation before Friday.

My to do list: Sleep.

Stuff. And if I get the stuff done, I might move on to things

1. Eat.
2. Play games.
3. Write.
4. Go off to high school. (Put under 'sleep' folder)
5. Play games.
6. Sleep.
7. Play more games.
8. Eat.
9. Sleep until next day.

just back from the gym...now we have shower, breakfast, whoring myself out for tips and $2.63 an hour, maybe lunch if it's slow, dinner, death.


goals for the day? Don't punch any dumb bitches in the face.

1. Eat.
2. Play games.
3. Write.
4. Go off to high school. (Put under 'sleep' folder)
5. Play games.
6. Sleep.
7. Play more games.
8. Eat.
9. Sleep until next day.

Sounds tiring...

Addendum to my list: deadline has now been reset two weeks earlier than I was expecting. Consequentially, I'll now be omitting sleep from my schedule.

Today and April:

1. Grocery shopping
2. Relearn the controls on my mom's camera
3. Photograph books and art objects
4. Design graphic banner for seller's page on Etsy.com
5. Figure out what the hell kind of paypal account I need and set that up
6. Set up Etsy.com seller's account/page and upload photos
7. Publish announcements of same

Everything except the grocery shopping is already a week behind schedule (on a deferred deadline) due to also starting a new dayjob that is turning out to be a brain eater.

Then starting in May, I'm supposed to start work on new images suitable for a Cafepress seller's page and developing a small publishing company concept.

My to-do list is evil, but I need it because otherwise there would be nothing on it but "go to office and work for other people" and that would make life not worth living.

Today.
1. Go get a juice.
2. Finish writing chapters 11 and 12 of book.
3. Play Sims >.>
4. Watch Scrubs.
5. Finish homework.

Well, my to do list is done for the day.

So NSG what have you on your to do list for today?

Myself:

Well first go and submit my final journalism piece of the semester and once again have some freedom! Then I need to phone my future landlord and talk to him about the contract he has sent me. I can't afford to move in during August and pay rent for that. I'm going to try and see if I defer my contract to September or something...

Best of luck dealing with the Landlord; in my experiance, which amounts to a year in equivalent rented student accomodation, their sympathy for the plight of the impoverished student tends to diminish where rent is concerned.

Personally, my busy day tomorrow will comprise of arriving in the library at 10 and poring through such primary material as is relevant to my dissertation, meeting my girlfriend for lunch, returning to my work for an exhilerating afternoon, before enjoying a well deserved gin and tonic or two at a public house of my choice. Stressful, I'm sure, however, I'll try to make time for less stressful activities, such as carping over my Telegraph at Guardian reading friends.

prays that Smunkee does *NOT* complete her To Do list...

Evil Eye? Don't know how their G&T is, but their cocktails are to die for.

They do very nice G&T's indeed; I prefer Dusk personally, since it's generally less busy. Hansom Cab is unbelievable cheap, and pleasant, and does good beer; £1.50 or so a pint.
