to do list

i must admit that when i first started this blog, i was afraid that i wouldn't be able to conjure up a sufficient number of "important" topics to discuss beyond the first few weeks or so. but then it suddenly dawned on me: why write about "important" topics in the first place? why not simply write about what i feel like writing about? besides, i'm not trying to win a pulitzer prize here. i'm just getting a few things off my chest.

that said, there is now a considerable backlog of "interesting" themes queuing up inside my brain that i have yet to blog about. and so, in order to ensure that i get to each and every one of those potential entries before i lose track of them, i now present the following laundry list of topics du jour for the days and weeks to come:

1. my weekend of classic nightmares
2. numerology: fact or fiction (i stole this one)
3. my grouchy, two-year-old rise and shine baby
4. procrastination is just another word for laziness
5. waiting for the bus runs contrary to the innate human desire to self-actualize
6. the queen and i
7. the great debate: mcflurry desserts - smarties or oreo bits
8. my summer of slack so far
9. why i will no longer call soccer "football"
10. hell hath no fury like my mother after she's been cheated by a crooked mechanic
11. dollar store batteries
12. the unfriendliest radio shack salesman in town
13. it was only a mission statement
14. an afternoon at the theatre
15. rainy days and sundays
16. public swimming hole
17. the inverse relationship between musical taste and volume
18. the world's worst riddles
