For my birthday I took a nap instead of getting things done (mistake 1), went out for sushi, hung out at Border's where I drank a white mocha frappacchino type thing (mistake 2), and then went home and ate mud pie ice cream, a family tradition (mistake 3).

See, the problem is that I don't think of things like ice cream as containing caffeine, even if they do.

Anyways, the combination of nap and caffeine has led to insomnia. Thankfully, it doesn't seem to have had that effect on Leif. He and koyote are snoring away in the bedroom.

The good side of this is that I'm getting the stuff done that I'd skipped during my brief foray into hedonism. Except technology is out to thwart me. The Apple website is broken (I'm trying to register for AppleCare). The Verizon bill paying website is broken. My bank's website is doing nightly maintenance. What's with that?

How cute. Every time I look in on them, Leif's scooted a little closer to koyote. He's such a snugglebug. And still sound asleep, thankfully.

Now I screwed up my Advantage order. Grr. Perhaps this is a sign I need to sleep instead of trying to get stuff done.

My goals for today:

• Empty all trash cans and take bags out to the dumpster
  
• Empty the dishwasher
  
• Get Advantage order fixed
  
• Find Leif's birth paperwork
  
• At least 1 load of laundry
  
• 15 minutes of thank you note/email writing
  
• One discussion board post for each class
  
• Pay Verizon bill
  
• Remind koyote about smarttag
  

I'm going through the file where I keep people's contact info, clearing out the entries I know are out of date. It's amazing how many entries I have for some people. I have a ton for msa, zenshadow, funjon, Remington, and oddly enough, RaZZoR. I think msa wins, though. Interestingly, gdmusumeci is the oldest entry in the file, even though I didn't actually know him at the time.

Now Leif had awakened and is eating. Hopefully afterwards he will go back to sleep.
