Go through your phone book, call people and ask them to drive you to the airport. The ones who will drive you are your true friends.

The rest aren't bad people; they're just acquaintances. - Jay Leno

so last night, i'm talking to nicholas, and it hits me. it's monday! i leave for Chicago in two days! really, in only one day since it was later evening, and we leave at 6:54am on wednesday morning! so not only do i have to get ready to leave, i have to clean my house because a: i hate coming home to a messy house and b: theresa will be inhabiting my household while i'm gone since she's on spring break. I also have to go buy toilet paper because i'm down to my last roll, and poor theresa will probably need some while i'm gone. ack! i haven't even started packing yet, i'm only going to be gone until friday, so it's not that much, but still. i also have to transfer all the pictures on rachels memory card to my computer and burn them onto a cd for her so i can use her memory card because i'm cheap and don't want to buy a bigger card and mine only holds 16 pictures.

so here's my to do list for today:
1. find a way to breath at work (we've found two dead mice and it smells horrific here) we covered our vents with binders. and i'm home now anyway.
2. go to the Y not gonna happen
3. buy toilet paper Katie is going to target on lunch and is picking me up some
4. do laundry so T has a clean towel and i have clean underwear for my trip
5. pack. and i'm gonna have to make a list for that, it's what i do
6. finish ripping songs to my mp3 player. i still have room for about 500 more songs i came home from work and had two new cd's in the mail. score.
7. burn rachel's pics to cd
8. i'm gonna have to actually get some work done today, since i'm going to be gone for 3 days i actually got tons done
9. do my dishes
10. vacuum
11. sweep my kitchen
12. find an extra set of sheets for theresa to use after jo and i leave so she doesn't have to sleep on sheets used by someone else check
13. wash my sheets so i can come home to a freshly laundered bed (the best way to come home from vacation)
14. get a good nights sleep because the next 3 days are gonna be busy
15. i remembered i have to go to the bank as well
16. buy black shoes because mine broke this afternoon they didn't have any!

yikes. i'd better go get to work.
