What Did I Do Today?

Not run a 5K, that's for sure. Dad and I went to Maria's for breakfast (yum) and then we went to the co-op for groceries. We went to Circuit City (I know, it's not my favorite place either) to get Mom a birthday present. We stopped by Office Depot for graph paper and Michael's for paint brushes. Michael's is having a custom framing sale so I might take my painting in to get it framed (finally). Then we came back and worked on my entry way. And we worked. We had lunch and watched a little golf. And we worked. With little paint brushes, painting the edges. And we worked. And now it's done. I vacuumed and cleaned up the painting supplies and took a shower and it's done. We'll put the plates back on the wall tonight over the light switches and hang some paintings and then it's really done. Hooray.

I also played around with the blog layout a little more. I organized the links a little better and hopefully made the text a bit easier to read. Dad is watching football and I feel like I can't really write a lot when the TV is going. But it's been a fun day. A nice day to hang out with Dad. He's going home tomorrow. I was going to give him his birthday presents tonight. I just realized I don't have a cake for him. I wonder if I can come up with something else. I'll look around while he takes a shower.

While not writing, I found some great things to look at:
1. An insane squirrel obstacle course. I'm amused someone took that much time to find a way to feed a squirrel.
2. The greatest way to get rid of pigeons ever. I can totally see someone spending the time to make this.
3. An IQ test that's supposed to be very accurate. It also takes like 40 minutes or something. I haven't done the whole thing. I feel like the television would distract me. And then the OCD about getting a great score, and not being able to because of the TV, and then things would just go down hill from there.
4. Interesting when gas stations start making statements.
