actually I am a sheepdog by trade, but this is my day off.

Yay, the first Monday of vacation always feels so good. :) In my mind I was on vacation as soon as I left work on Friday night, but it's always nice to know that at the time I would be going in to work, today I don't have to.

But what I have on my to-do list will fill my day up, I think. Well, I can make anything fill a day up.

( boring to do list... )

It's another heavily overcast day, though not actively raining at the moment. This was why Eor didn't take my picture all day, yesterday - he was hoping that it would get a little lighter out, because as you can see the flash is not flattering to my skin. I don't think I actually look quite that spotty in real life. (Every time I look at the back of my head in this one I think of my brother Eightball. :) He's much thicker in the neck, especially now, but when he was in high school he put on a ratty long, black wig and fake glasses and looked startlingly like me.)

God, MySpace sucks. I just found out that like half the people I work with have MySpace pages, so I sent them friend requests (why not), but it doesn't give you a place to send a message in that request, so my fake MySpace name is attached to it. I do not put up my real name on any online interface like most of the people I work with. :P

Woot! I have overcome my phone anxiety to the extent that I have called:
1) Lamprey Health Care and talked to both Ashley in Records (who used to be my co-worker) and Cheryl who used to be my boss (to let her know I'm updating my resume).
2) Dr. O'Guin's office to get all records forwarded from there - because Ashley reminded me that he had in fact already forwarded my records there and that if I want to have complete records I need hers as well. (Dr. O'Guin was the one who did the test without talking to me about it which then cost me $70, and tried to get me to sign up for some fat clinic thing because according to her I'm morbidly obese.)

I have also
- Organized my resume (still have to write cover letter)
- Found a faster way to upload all my photos to Flickr (which involved paying them, but I guess since the photos just for Florida were three months worth of free uploads, and I couldn't organize my photo groups... it was something I was going to do someday, anyway.) And all the Florida pics are uploading, now. :)

Of course these are things which are not on my list of things to do, and now I only have two hours left to accomplish all the things I was afraid would fill the day... oh! Gosh. Must step away from the computer. The cover letter will wait for a bit, I'll take it in tomorrow. That should do.

...

Oh. And then I wrote the above, and my brother Hawk just phoned, and we talked for... at least 40 minutes. He's great. :D And he also sent email just before he phone, apparently, because I just see it now - in response to where I posted the pic of me with my new haircut. ("And you're cute as the dickens!" hee! :))
