I have no work tomorrow, and no homework due either. Does this mean I should stay in bed all day twittering about how sleepy I am? As much as I would love to say yes to that, I have decided to make this a project to see how productive I can be. Here are my plans. Friday I will update with the results.
1. Cup o’ Coffee – take time to make it good, clean the coffee maker out and put in the right amount of sugar/milk.
2. Write or take notes for a future post- it’s going to be a busy week so I need to get ahead of myself.
3. Research- Horoscopes, SEO, Web 2.0, Living green, And a new fitness plan. (Take notes of anything blogworthy)
4. Take one picture.
5. Work on some homework for next week. Classes are almost over and I need catch up on some things.
6. Make a flickr favorite collage, and post it.
7. Make a delicious supper. Eat it.
It will be a good day.
If you are bored check out http://oskope.com/ a site that lets you search through flickr, amazon, you tube, and ebay visually.

I have already decided this is going to be the winter for hibernation. This means going out for as little as possible, relaxing, and enjoying the first winter living with my boyfriend. Here are some of my plans.
Read- I plan to load up on books (from www.half.com) and get a whole lot of reading done. I have been reading mostly non fiction books lately, so I think I will stick more to fiction during the winter.
Write- This blog mostly, I really need to get it going. My plan is to write three a week, then write an extra to archive for when I’m too busy to post.
Cook- Comfort foods are what gets me through the cold season. I’m going to master mashed potatoes, chicken casserole, and homemade Macaroni and Cheese.
Study- I’ll be taking 4 college courses at night so I am positive that a good chunk of time will be spent in text books. I am also going to look into some topics I want to research on my own.
Computer- I would love to add more to this site. And I think I might convert over to linux? I know there is still a lot of things I need to learn, so winter would be a good time to spend away my time on the good old compy.
Movies- Rob and I are movie junkies, I would like to get through my never ending netflix list and also finish a few of my favorite TV series. (The Office, Six Feet Under, Nip Tuck)
In between all these there will be tons of cuddling, drawing, time spent with pets, magazine reading, dancing, emailing, letter writing, and online shopping. (thanks to x-mas)
What are you doing for wintertime?

- Have an amazing cup of coffe/latte. I’m not sure where I am going to get it yet. I might just take time myself to perfect my coffee making skills. Lately we have been brewing Cinnamon cream swirl which is really good, but I always add a little too much sugar.
- Try to find one magazine with interesting content. I haven’t been having much luck with magazines recently, in my town it’s difficult to find anything besides the basics.
- Put together a mood lifting play list. Something with fun and catchy beats I can dance to.
- Take three good pictures. None of myself. It’s been too long since I have given a shot at photography.
- Work on my inspiration board. (cork board up in my room where I post my favorite pictures/clippings.
- Take a 20 minute nap (I haven’t napped in ages) while cuddling up with my hot water bottle. An idea I got from the lovely Gala Darling
- Design a logo for this blog.
- Write about all this in my moleskine and use the events/images to post about the whole weekend here. (This will become the weekly Sunday evening weekend post)
