a small glimpse into my obsessive behavior

I woke up early to begin the homework process. It will be a long day. This is not a complaint, but rather an admission that I am somewhat looking forward to the to-do list. I have become so focused on to-do lists for the time preceding my wedding (480 very busy days) that it is my main coping mechanism. It the moment, it is driving me to distraction. So, take a drive with me and allow me to indulge for a moment. Here, I list my to-do's for the summer--so as to hold myself accountable.

In no particular order:
1. Read the 25 pages I downloaded about WordPress, then create one that is not my ramblings, but rather actual attempts at nonfiction
2. Read the Broken Plate and the three collections of creative nonfiction from this semester.
3. Read War and Peace
4. Study my 1000 French flashcards, update my French binder of notes, read Un Debut à Paris (a book I found for $1 at a café in Knoxville)
5. Speak French
6. Compile the final list of graduate schools and their requirements--limit to 5 (as of now, in order: Tulane, U. of Vermont-Burlington, LSU, U. of Oregon, U. of Washington-Seattle)
6.a. Download all documents needed because there are roughly 80 for each school
7. Read The Feminine Mystique and Alice in Wonderland with Joe
8. Subscribe to bitch magazine
9. Finish designing the RSVPs, invitations, placecards, thank-yous and labels for the wedding
10. Take 2 classes with Ivy Tech
11. Tell the world about EarthShare while being paid $68/month by them to ride MetroLink
12. Write about aforementioned MetroLink

13. Lay on the couch with Joe, watching every Cardinals game and cheer for Lohse, because he is one of two pitchers that has pitched more than one game (He is the only one that won both. And he is from Chico, CA, which I think means Boy, CA or something.)
14. Learn ALL about the social networks and begin using them properly
