I went to work and mainly surfed the web. Also, I played some Angry Birds during my lunch break.

I woke up and played with my kids. I went to a work meeting at a different hospital than I usually do and then I traveled to one of my hospital sites where I am doing some data entry now. In a couple of hours, I’ll be in a Kaplan GRE prep classroom reviewing reading comprehension. After, my partner will pick me up, we’ll drink hot chocolate and walk around. Since it’s Tuesday, when I get home, I’ll watch Covert Affairs and do GRE homework until about 1 am. Then I’ll read and Fluther some more.

Woke up, went to the library to meet with my freshmen kiddies I tutor, none of them showed up, so I sat in the library and played flash games for an hour. After that, I went back to my suite and played guitar for a while. Then I talked to a girl and helped her get over her nasty breakup. Then I ate some Fruity Pebbles. After that, I went to my thesis seminar class where I looked at Fluther while some dude talked about how cool he is and how we should be prepared to answer stupid questions about which part of a taco we would be and how I was wrong for saying that I would be the shell and I should have said that I would be the guacamole. Then I went back to my suite again and watched my roommate play Banjo Kazooie on xbox. I ate some more Fruity Pebbles. Now, I’m sitting around waiting for dinner to come by. I’ll go to pottery after that.

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard “some dude talked about how cool he is and how we should be prepared to answer stupid questions about which part of a taco we would be and how I was wrong for saying that I would be the shell and I should have said that I would be the guacamole” – priceless.

Not too much. I woke up, brushed my teeth. Had a bagel and a pickle for breakfast. Took my dogs out, did dishes, made ice, cleaned my bathroom.. and now I’m having a salad. Oh, and I talked to my mom on the phone. After this I plan to finish cleaning up my living room and then play COD, and probably blow my nose 100x more before the day ends.

CMaz's avatar

@Simone_De_Beauvoir – Was this question on here? If so, can you provide a link.

I feel like a taco.

flutherother's avatar

I had the day off and so I took a bus out into the country. The forecast said it would be sunny but it stayed dull. Lovely scenery nonetheless. I took a walk through the woods, took a few photographs and then had a bowl of soup at a cafe before coming back. Some mail needing answered on my return. Resumed reading my library book and then went online.

TexasDude's avatar

@Simone_De_Beauvoir, actually happened. He was like “okay, we’re going to pretend we are doing an interview. If our company… or just the world, or your life, even, was a taco, which part would you be.” Nobody spoke up, so I raised my hand and said “the shell, because I try and provide cohesion as best I can.” His response? “No, that’s wrong. That’s what they expect you to say. You should have said salsa or guacomole, because you want to bring something new to the table. You don’t get the job.” This was my face

Am on fall break at the moment. Got up late, took a walk with my boyfriend to meet some friends at a nearby diner. Had banana pancakes. Came back and studied for my Chinese test on Thursday. Pretty boring day.

Had a lawn mower repair man explain his log-splitting invention to me. Although I was intrigued by his resourcefulness, I have a new appreciation for safety regulations concerning industrial machinery.

Threw a sickie off work today, backache giving me jip. Took it easy, played with kids after school. Looking forward to tomorrow…...Happy Birthday to me :¬)

Coloma's avatar

It’s not too exciting, but, it is very nice. lol

I am enjoying some off time and have been kicking around my house all morning enjoying the day and weather, watching my cats play in the trees and just now took a shower and am sitting naked under my ceiling fan in my cool new alligator vinyl computer chair. Soon I am going out to do whatever..not sure yet. I love aimless days!

erichw1504's avatar

Rescued a baby from a burning building.

Actually, I sat on my lazy ass all day.

Aster's avatar

@ucme Happy Birthday , ucme!

ucme's avatar

@TheOnlyNeffie Yeah really! Oh shit, what have I done? Should’ve kept that quiet. Me being the shy & retiring type :¬) Thanks for that by the way!

Austinlad's avatar

Fended off an attack by zombies, won $100 million in the lottery, signed up for the first commercial flight to Mars, finally convinced (I think) Linday Lohan to stay off booze and drugs, and agreed wth ChazMaz on a question. All in all, a fairly good day.

ucme's avatar

@Aster Why thank you M’aam :¬)

erichw1504's avatar

Made out with Justin Bieber.

Coloma's avatar

@Austinlad

Wow…book me a seat on that inter-galactic flight would’ya?

Oh, and I am a pretty good accountant, need someone to manage your winnings? lol ;-)

Austinlad's avatar

Absolutely, @coloma! You’re hired.

diavolobella's avatar

I really didn’t have diddly squat to do at work, so I mostly played around on the Internet, including Fluther. Fortunately, at my place of work, if you are not busy this is allowed. In an hour I’ll go have dinner with my Mom, which I do every Tuesday night. Then home, a hot bath, good read and bed. Exciting, isn’t it?

JilltheTooth's avatar

@ucme : Happy happy joy joy! Go eat cake.

ucme's avatar

@JilltheTooth Yeah I will thanks. Just to clarify, it’s tomorrow 13th :¬)

I feel guilty with “aimless days” and I’ve heard it’s a very common emotion. maybe Jimmy Buffett will drop in later.

@Coloma No pressure there then!

Seaofclouds's avatar

@ucme Happy Birthday!!

As for me, I went to have my beta rechecked today (it was 2600), so the numbers are looking good! I’ll have them rechecked again on Thursday and get to have an ultrasound on Friday! I can’t wait to see our little nimbus.

amazingme's avatar

I Woke up two hours late (7:50, YIKES!), rushed to school, found out we had a playing test in orchestra on music i didn’t know, got a lower grade than the second chair (I’m first) so I didn’t end up getting the solo for the fall concert, finished the school day, came home and changed my nephew’s diaper, watched an episode MST3K on Netflix and now I am here.

Pretty boring I know.
@ucme Happy Birthday!

jrpowell's avatar

I woke up and sold three shares of aapl. Then I made some chicken corn dogs and tater tots. Took a bath and played with kittens. I decided the weather was nice enough to mow the backyard. Then I went outside and realized that the backyard was a bit worse than I remember. Mowing wasn’t going to work. Fine, I will use the weed whacker. Great, the weed whacker is out of gas. So I am doing laundry (bedding) and drinking screwdrivers and dorking around on the Internet.

ucme's avatar

@amazingme Thanks & yes you sound pretty amazing :¬)

Facade's avatar

Woke up. Skipped yoga (regretting that). Went to work late. Tossed around a blow-up football with my manager. Came home. Now I’m going to eat some oatmeal and ice cream, do my hair, and fuck play around with my boyfriend =)

Cruiser's avatar

@Coloma I see you are properly breaking in your new chair!

Me…after a 4 day weekend off it back into the meat grinder and heavy-duty meetings most of the day have left me pretty spent. Time for some electric GUITAR turned up to **11**!!

free_fallin's avatar

Spent 30 minutes on the treadmill, ate blueberries with yogurt and oats for breakfast, worked for about an hour, played around online, caught up on the shows Weeds, Dexter and Bored to Death, purchased a few things online, freaked out about seeing someone in 16 days, bought salmon to grill for dinner, ate delicious grilled salmon with roasted potatoes, jogged for an hour watching the sun set and now I am home on the internet once again.

Kardamom's avatar

Got a flu shot and then went to a store that sells fancy Christmas ornaments (even though it’s not even Halloween yet!) Got a cute little ornament for my friend’s baby’s first Xmas.

Fred931's avatar

I went to school again. I hate it.

Neizvestnaya's avatar

It was not exciting.
Attempting to go less than a ¼ mile to the gas station on an empty tank, I was held up in inescapable construction traffic for 20 minutes. During that span of time my car decided to overheart though I did make it into the gas station after all. Late for work and heading back ¼ mile to my house to switch cars with my bf, I had to cross the same backed up traffic to turn into my neighborhood. AARRRRGH!
oh yeah, my purse tipped over and my Arby’s roast beef yum yum plopped onto the floor :(

St.George's avatar

I’m sick so I stayed home and sat in the same chair for several hours. I read all my old tweets, dating back to March of 2007. Then I poked around, answered some emails. I ate a light lunch, laid on the couch, got the mail. When my kids came home, we walked down to the corner market and got ice cream. We sat on the porch and ate it. Then I went back inside to sit down, and spent even more time on the computer, while the kids went down the street to play with friends. Now I’m on fluther, waiting for dinner to be ready, and later tonight I’ll probably watch some bad tv and go to bed early, so I can return to work. This is exactly what I needed to do today – nothing urgent or mobile.

LuckyGuy's avatar

I drove from Summersville WV through Apollo and Punxsutawney PA and am now in a B&B in Bradford PA. Kind of fun.

DominicX's avatar

Went to classes, watched The Office, talked about spiders and other gross things with my roommate, now I’m going to go to a surprise party for my friend and then I’m going to a restaurant :D

Happy Native American Genocide Columbus Day!

diavolobella's avatar

I just finished working out and when I signed on to Fluther, it said to me “Have you been working out? Thought so.” Made me laugh.

Coloma's avatar

I just cleaned out my fridge…quite an array of weirdness to dispose of. lol

Taking my flashlight and walking across the road to the woods edge and flinging old grapes, a couple of apples, wilted cabbage, and funky cucumbers into the natural compost zone now.

Always an invigorating moment in the dark. Just me and Bigfoot! haha

muppetish's avatar

I went to work today at the Writing Center. One of our tutors had to quit recently and I picked up his assigned group for the morning. They’re wonderful (stayed on task, asked target questions, followed instruction.) After work, I had lunch with my brother before attending my English Renaissance course. I neglected to write the commentary that was due today as I was oblivious it was due. Guess I’ll be attending office hours on Thursday to make up for my error :) Now I am working on homework for school tomorrow on my brand new laptop. No more screwy screen! Hurray!

St.George's avatar

@muppetish That sounds like a fun kind of day.

nailpolishfanatic's avatar

I went to school at 9:55 – 13:45. Our last class ended with a test and so I decided with my friends that we go downtown at the city center and had some drinks. Then I went home.

Berserker's avatar

Slept in, avoided my roomie’s bad mood, went to the store, had dinner, kicked Gafgrarion’s ass, watched Orphan, and now I’m gettin’ mah ass drunx.
Days off RULE.

tragiclikebowie's avatar

Slept too late. Mucked around online and then went to meet my friend to go costume shopping. We spent around 6 hours shopping and spent way too much money, but my costume is nearly complete now. We ate at Panera and it was delicious. Got stoned out of my mind and thought I saw a lion in the road while driving. Came home and passed the eff out almost immediately. Now it’s 6AM and I’m wide awake.

cookieman's avatar

Woke up at 5AM. Drove my wife and her coworker to the airport (business trip). Drove my daughter to school by 8AM – was in work by 8:15AM.

Designed a print ad and wrote a radio ad. Did some research. Picked up my daughter at school at 2PM – dropped her at my mother-in-laws. Back to work by 3PM.

Met with my boss. Justified my existence for the 100th time. Did some more work. Punched out at 6PM.

Did some food shopping for the MIL. Picked up my daughter. Helped her with her homework. Ate dinner. Washed the dog in the sink. Spoke to my wife. Watched some TV. Ate some toast.

Carried my already sleeping daughter and dog upstairs. In bed by 10PM. Out like a light.

OpryLeigh's avatar

So far I have got up, showered and dressed, dropped my dog off at my dads house and then come to work and that’s where I am right now!

NaturallyMe's avatar

Made a couple of work related phone calls. Laundry. Showered. Washed hair. Ate. Watered some plants outside. Made a b’day card for a party we’re going to on Monday. Did some exercises on my stepping thingy. Gave the kitty and dog food. Washed dishes. Did some other craft stuff. Got hot. In no particular order. And now i’m making dinner. (yay!)

LuckyGuy's avatar

I visited the Zippo museum in Bradford PA, Cutco in Olean, supper in Angelica and drove the rest of the day to get home.
I will sleep well tonight.

CMaz's avatar

“I visited the Zippo museum”
