One of the secrets of getting more done is to make a TO DO List every day*

Today, in Summary:

7:20-8:40 - Got up, revived self, made breakfast and today's lunch, deliberated over clothing, got dressed and outta the house.
8:42 - Stab self in leg with bike.
9:05 - Arrive late to class
9:06 - Change direction mid-stride because our classroom's been changed.
9:07-12:00 - Lecture with 2 10-minute breaks and one coffee
12:00-12:45 - Lunch
12:45-12:50 - Email check
12:50-1:00 - Omgwtfbbq at Willemijn's copy-pasted part on the Maasai from last year's proposal.**
1:00-4:45 - Group work, in which I do most of the work as our 4-party group is as 3 for today, and then at 2 after 2:30.
4:47-5:00 - Say hi to Moon the secretary-man and rant at sympathetic Pauline about Willemijn's copy-paste job.

6:28-6:32 - Bike like bat-outta-hell to bike and change.
6:32-7:00 - Abdominal training
7:00-7:22 - Elliptic (i.e. running)
7:30-7:50 - Bike to grocery store
7:50-8:25 - Groceries, including some 10 minutes staring at the preparred food section, too tired to make up my mind.
8:25-8:26 - Get finger caught in bike's lock. Wince and curse.
8:326-8:31 - Bike home with groceries hanging off my back and shoulder (thus propped on my leg) and a bag of oranged hanging off one finger. Miraculously manage to not bike into a ditch.
8:32-9:15 - Say hi to Laura. Die. Cry a bit. Empty bags. Stare at nothing feeling drained.
9:16 - Accidentally drop dirty incense holder onto black pants. Curse. Attempt to fix.
9:17-9:45 - Shower, get dressed, say hi to Renske, put groceries away.
9:45-10:05 - Have microwave dinner and wine.
10:05-10:25 - Have more wine. Write LJ entry.

Expected activities for the remainder of the day: watch Heroes 3x04. Squee. Jot down notes for heroes_meta.

Today's good stuff? Digger-day. Got quoted once for ljdq and thrice for heroes_meta. Oh, and wine. Apparently, I now like wine.

Non-academic things learnt today? ledger isn't just a name, it's a word.

I don't know what my first instinct was, but I think my TESL teacher's totally confused me for life. I think she may have been an advocate of the were, because the statement applies to both. But I dunno anymore.
