Efficient

[mrissa]

Ohhhh, am I productive girl or what. So far:
--ate breakfast and lunch
--caught up on e-mail and lj
--read newspaper and some of The Knight
--washed dog and self
--cleaned up after sick dog
--calmed sick dog
--worked out
--hard-boiled eggs
--sorted dragons and carried box of dragons to basement
--picked up prescription
--deposited check and got cash back (markgritter, you should maybe thief some money from my purse before I go)
--bought April birthday cards and baby-themed wrapping paper
--bought groceries
--sorted out PayPal idiocy
--bought prints for in kitchen
--made notes for a story I'm not writing
--worked on The Mark of the Sea Serpent

I think I might have done some other stuff, but it kind of gets lost in the shuffle. I will poke MSS some more, and then wrap Amber's presents and pack up the box, take it to the PO, go to my ENT appointment, and have coffee with one person and dinner with another.

I hope tomorrow isn't quite so productive, frankly. Unless naps count.

ETA: See? See how much more efficient I am than you? Many of you would have done "walk down the stairs" and "black out and lose your footing" as separate tasks. But by multitasking, I have managed to combine them and work in "fall down half flight of stairs and wrench shoulder": three for one!

Let that be a lesson to you slackers.

Sometimes I need to remind myself not to lapse into old habits, too. It's just in the opposite direction, I'm afraid: wheeeeeSPLAT.

I have not been productive today. I wrote my Wired column, but that's about it.

And I've been up since 6:00.

Your post-entry productivity sounds painful. I recommend against a follow-up.

Regarding your edit:

Ack.

[columbina.livejournal.com]

Seconding that ack. That's TOO productive.

*smites the stairs with mighty wrathful smiting*

*long pause*

*rebuilds the stairs with many sighs and mutters*

You don't have to be _that_ productive. Three steps! Without falling, preferably.

[orbitalmechanic.livejournal.com]

See, when I've been that productive, I let myself cheat by getting dizzy in time to sit down. That's why it's important to get stuff done early, so you have the freedom to make that tradeoff!

--hard-boiled eggs
--sorted dragons and carried box of dragons to basement

see, that is really the best way to make sure that you don't have to box and store any more dragons!

It's a good time to be efficient, certainly.

[dd-b.livejournal.com]

That was sounding like good productivity there for a while.

Ouch. Well, glad it's not worse than a wrenched shoulder. So far as I know, there is no surplus of Marissas, and therefore this one must not be used up too fast.

Producing injuries is not what we had in mind.

[kirizal.livejournal.com]

Blacking out bad.

See, this is what happens when you're too productive. Your inner slacker will have its revenge.

At least, that's what my inner slacker keeps telling me.

::sigh:: I think I've got an old hammock you could rig up as a net at the bottom of your stairs, should it become necessary.

Hope your shoulder (and the rest of you) recovers soon.

[talimena.livejournal.com]

Youch! I'll certainly keep that lesson in mind. I hope your shoulder feels better.

[dichroic.livejournal.com]

Until you got to the blacking out part, I was really hoping the eating (TWO meals, even) and exercising parts meant you were feeling much better.

[mrissa.livejournal.com]

Well, the thing is, if you feel bad and then you don't get food, sleep, and exercise one way or another, you end up with more problems than you started with. So I've been trying very hard on all three of those fronts. Sometimes it's been more trying than others.

[hobbitblue.livejournal.com]

Eek on the edit.. are you ok? *gentle hugs* And yes, very productive, quit with the gymnastics next time though!

[mrissa.livejournal.com]

I am okayish. Not really so good as okay, but not mangled permanently. I will be calling my massage people as soon as they open this morning.

[ladysea.livejournal.com]

*hugs*

Eeeek! No more falling!

You can only take multi-tasking so far. =P

[wshaffer.livejournal.com]

Ow. Hope you're okay.

Excesses of multitasking aside, that really is quite an impressive done-list.

We've heard about it, but we don't have HBO.

[kythiaranos.livejournal.com]

I am in awe of your productivity. I hope the shoulder feels better soon.
