I'll get back to work...any minute now...

Okay, we're going in the wayback machine to a bloggy device that I used back in my thesis days. (So long ago.)

Time: 7:00 pm

I am wearing: red long-sleeved shirt, with a fleece vest over top (I've been cold today), khaki pants and rubber-soled slippers.

I last consumed: pork chops with mushroom gravy and rice, and a lot of tea.

Song stuck in my head: "William Tell Overture." Which is a step up from "Miss Mary Had a Steamboat." But at least I wasn't the only one with that song stuck in my head.

Today's accomplishments: I went to the library and photocopied a million articles, for Friday's Europe class. I also spent much time getting frustrated with this university's reserve article system. I've read a bit about nineteenth-century conservatism, but really not enough.

Amount of time spent procrastinating from reading today: infinite.

Bloggish recommendation of the day: Pink Cupcake's one hundred facts in one hundred days about herself. She writes so beautifully. And her fear of butterflies has made me theorise that she's Ky's new best friend/British doppelganger.

So far disappointing: I haven't gotten to play with my webcam nearly as much as I want to!

I am procrastinating from: getting back to my reading.

Awww, I'm blushing. :) Thank you for the recommendation and for your lovely comments on my posts. I have no idea what I'll be writing about when I get to Day 100...

I'm glad you've written this type of post again. I wasn't a commenter back when you were writing your thesis, but I did read often and always loved these posts.

Okay, why have I not paid attention to Pink Cupcake until now? I LOVE HER! (her blog, anyway.) I think I'm going to have to comment on her blog and tell her this too. And add her to my favorites. Yup, that's what I'm gonna do.

Pink Cupcake, meet my former roommate. Meg, meet Pink Cupcake. Hooray.
