cleaning my in-box
i'm home. and i should probably be sleeping, but i don't really want to. actually, i should probably go toss a load of jeans in the washer. hang on.
alright, now my jeans can wash while i don't sleep.
i spent the weekend at my parents' house. it was fabulous. i planned to stay there thursday night to facilitate the friday-morning shopping trip and to come back to my place friday evening. but by the time we got home friday, i was tired & not interested in driving anymore, so i stayed friday night. then after lunch & a card game or two on saturday, it was pretty easy to see that i wasn't going to leave just to come back the next day ... so i stayed saturday night, too. it was fabulous. but then, i already said that, right? :)
i came home to only two of my three newspapers though. and no mail at all. i find those both a little strange.
i'm cleaning out my in-box. there are 65 messages in there, and i like to keep it to 25 or less. so here are some random tidbits for you from the e-mails i'm going through ...
first off, two surveys, but i'll have to make those separate posts.
the bluehighlights.com domain name expires at the end of january. i haven't decided if i'll renew it or not, yet. it's fairly inexpensive ... but not as inexpensive as free.
i got another load of laundry ready to go in after the jeans. i wonder why lane bryant gave me the little hangers with my new bras. does anyone actually hang up their bras? no, that's not in an e-mail ... but it fits with the randomness.
i very much dislike the ads that get larger when you roll over them. they're annoying.
although i've successfully accomplished NaBloPoMo, and am tempted to go radio silent for some time, i'm intrigued at the thought of continuing to blog daily through the month of december. the official NaBloPoMo site has a december theme of "thanks" ... and i find that interesting. my thoughts on thanksgiving were not meant to be jaded or sarcastic. i do believe that we all need to BE gratitude and allow it to exude from our lives. perhaps a list of ten thanks givings daily through the month. i guess i can't throw that e-mail away until i make that decision. of course, it will be a quick decision, as tomorrow is december first.
tomorrow is december first! yowza!
in case you're curious, the suggested theme for november's blogging was "politics", i believe. however, as you know, 'becca doesn't do politics.
lifestyles is having an open house this friday and offering 20% off ornaments during the event. i am currently collecting unique ornaments for display in my living room. perhaps i'll go.
i think i'm going to request off the entire week of Christmas. that way i can spend lots of good quality time with the family, and still be in the office the week of New Year's to tie up loose ends on a couple of events Jan. 1 & 2.
those of you familiar with my graphite hand, might find this article interesting. it's on the artist who designed the hand and the work he's done remodeling his home/workshop in san francisco. actually, even if you have no idea what my graphite hand looks like - you might really enjoy the photos of his home. it's just slightly amazing.
ooo - julie! i'm not ignoring your tree photos. i will look at them tomorrow night, i promise. i'm currently drawn to FavoriteTrees-2.jpg and FavoriteTrees-9.jpg ... but i've only seen the tiny thumbnails. i'll look at 'em full size & get back to you.
oh, wait ... those numbers might not be super helpful, as i think there may be multiple photos with the same name. so ... yeah, i'll let you know when i open 'em full size. :)
i came across an e-mail that i'd sent myself as a possible goal for next year's list. when i think of ideas at work, i e-mail my personal account so i don't forget them. as soon as i opened it, i thought "oh yeah! i also need to write down ... crap! what was it i was going to write down? i've been thinking about it for days!" don't you hate that?
i do wish season tickets to the railcats weren't so expensive. seeing e-mails about said tickets makes me wish it was baseball season again.
i almost forgot to pay my web hosting this month. glad i chose today to clean out my in-box. :)
alright, i successfully got it down to 21 messages. not bad at all, right?

i totally enjoyed hearing/seeing your ramble every day this month. And i think you should totally do it next month, too. Even Jonathan said he might keep posting (although if it's daily, i'd fall over in a dead faint), so what's stopping you?
(i'll just not mention that i haven't tried it myself yet.)
Please don't go on strike! I really enjoyed reading all this stuff. I think I visited almost every day.
Yeah, don't stop!! I visited many times every day! I was actually going to suggest that you make your own blog every day thing. 'beccas ramblings are always so fun! Glad to hear the trees are somewhere in your thoughts. Bummer about the numbers though. I picked them all and named them at the same time. It must have started the numbers over again each different day! Can't wait to see what you come up with!
