1. List 5 things you want to do before the year ends.
as I write this, there are 6 days left in the year, 4 of which are workdays. That's a regrettably short period in which to accomplish very much. However, I'd like to...
(a) get a pneumonia shot
(b) encourage the public library to locate the book for which they've billed me as Lost, since I returned it on Tuesday with the rest of my materials. (If I were to steal a library book, it would not be The Poetry of Baudelaire.)
(c) respond to the recruiter who contacted me on Thursday afternoon
(d) haul all my Christmas shit back downstairs
(e) get my brother to come over here to solve my [bleep bleep bleep] TV situation
light gray with brown and green mallards. (They are flannel pj pants.)
3. Favorite motivational quote:
"It's not the load that breaks you down—it's the way you carry it." [Lou Holz]

this morning! Rare and noteworthy. I had a white chocolate mocha.

lightly salted roasted almonds

14. What are 3 things you want to do before the month ends?
as I write this answer, the month ends in 26 hours. Unfortunately, what I want to do and what I can do are very different things.
I'd like to say I love you, out loud.

if it's done every single day, then it is by definition not unique. My Advanced Comp prof is probably wincing involuntarily right now, without knowing why....
