daily update, Wednesday March 4
Mar. 4th, 2020 09:19 pmThings done today:
1. Not the IRS 1:30-7:30pm. (It was technically a 2-8pm shift, but I got in early and we closed up early on account of finishing all our appointments, so whatever.) I had one amended return (long story short, the client's employer had some hilarious-if-it-doesn't-affect-you payroll processor issues) and then one new client who had some interesting multi-state income.
2. Watered my houseplants.
3. Deposited a check.
4. Bought supplemental groceries, the most important of which was another box of NyQuil capsules.
5. Wrote ~200 words of the untitled Narnia bridge fic.
6. Read chapter 10 of A Fistful of Shells.
7. Wished my brother a happy birthday. :D (Via text. Normally I also leave him a singing voicemail, but I forewent that this year since I currently sound like a dying frog. *sigh*)
8. Created a list of my Three Sentence Ficathon fills, which is the first step to getting them crossposted to AO3 and correctly indexed on my directory posts.
9. Continued listening to my current Great Courses series, How To Listen to and Understand Great Music, 3rd edition, which I am now slightly over halfway through.
10. Attempted to call my parents, since I was unable to speak with Mom when she called me last night (I went to bed just past 7pm and neither my voice nor my brain were up for a conversation around 8:30pm), but got no answer. I'll try again tomorrow.
I should probably also mention that while I still have not found the combined time and energy to do my laundry, I did hand-wash a pair of pants in my kitchen sink last night and they have now air-dried completely, so I will not be without clothes tomorrow. So that's something.
And now I shall go fall ungracefully into bed, because I am still sick (UGH) and need my sleep.
