*sigh* Bookcases are easier to assemble when all the holes that should have been drilled actually do get completely drilled...

Three things I accomplished today:
  • Inflicted my little bit of interactive fiction on a playtester, the lovely [profile] tally_cat , and added a new verb at her suggestion.
  • Installed MediaWiki 1.6.9 on a RHEL 4 (and therefore PHP 4) server.
  • Almost totally rearranged the living room to provide a somewhat quieter sleeping space, more room for exercise, and more seating.
Three things that made me happy today:
  • Getting a workout with Yourself! Fitness for the Playstation (man, Maya's legs use a hell of a lot less Δv than mine do -- I'm not sure I could ever match her pace)
  • Unsolicited compliments from the aforementioned lovely [profile] tally_cat
  • Having a night to myself

Three things that made me happy today:
  • Leftover Szechuan tofu for breakfast
  • Finding a bedroom set (at a price that won't kill us) that we both really like well enough to keep for the next 10 years or so
  • Planning where and how to get a small gift for Jodi tomorrow (since we're celebrating VD early)
Three things I accomplished today:
  • Taking photographs of the bar and buffet table, and sending an email inquiry to a furniture buyer that was recommended to us
  • Removing and throwing away the attached side tables from the bed, and vacuuming where they used to be
  • Going to sleep in a home that's somewhat cleaner than it was when I woke up
Hugs to my friend who started me on this "three things" idea.  Dear friend, you brought me joy today because your idea helped me look back fondly on the day.  I know you were feeling bad about yourself earlier today, and we all have our moments that we're not proud of.  Hang in there.  Have patience with yourself.  And more hugs.

Oh, and I got a couple of virtual gifts for Jodi. They'll be on her profile for 2 weeks. :)
sylvar: (Oh purr!)
Now that the holiday season is drawing to a close, I've used some gift money to treat myself to a few things I've been wanting:
I also got a few things that weren't just for me:
And if I can just find out where exactly Office Depot delivered my assortment of disposable fountain pens, I'll have fun with those soon too.

Bed shopping is continuing.  It occurs to me that maybe we should buy a low-profile foundation first, and then if that doesn't provide the support Jodi needs, we could go for a new mattress.
