Grex Ing Item 66: The "What have you been doING today?" Item
Entered by lee on Sun Dec 15 04:58:17 UTC 1996:

This is the item where you tell the rest of us what you have been doING today.
Everybody's gotta do something every day, so I figured this would get some
more people wandering out there to enter some responses.

419 responses total.



#1 of 419 by scott on Sun Dec 15 14:37:03 1996:

So far, showering and eating breakfast.  And Grexing.  Later on, I plan to
do laundry and go shopping for some new boots.


#2 of 419 by scg on Sun Dec 15 16:02:56 1996:

Sleep, and then eventually dragging myself out of bed to the computer.


#3 of 419 by hokshila on Sun Dec 15 20:56:09 1996:

        Called eartha to say good morning, and asked if she wanted me to buy
the Jimmy. Called my sister and said I wanted to buy the Jimmy. Called the
insurance company and left a message. Called work to let them know what time
I'd be in. Took a shower. Made the coffee. Fired up the Grex Beast and an
curently going through the BBS.


#4 of 419 by lee on Sun Dec 15 21:29:46 1996:

Waking up, eating lunch, studying for my math final, dialing in through my
modem and grexing.


#5 of 419 by scott on Sun Dec 15 22:33:17 1996:

OK, now I'm eating dinner and Grexing.  Today I also defrosted my fridge! 
And went grocery shopping, and got some new boots (more like heavy shoes, but
just about what I really need, and half off!).  This evening I plan to watch
the Simpsons and perhaps clean house a bit.


#6 of 419 by scg on Sun Dec 15 23:49:11 1996:

Got up, played with the computer, took a shower, played with the computer some
more, went to the place I used to work to teach my ex boss how to do some of
the things I used to do there, came home and played with the computer some
more.


#7 of 419 by lee on Mon Dec 16 02:47:42 1996:

Studied some more for my math final (anyone want to take it for me?) and am
back on grex and plan to sleep soon since I need to get used to sleeping early
to get up for the morning final on Tuesday.

Showered and dressed, ate a bowl of cereal, did my Shakespeare paper,  excused
my brother from school (came home with the flu), put on a load of laundry,
then came here to Grex.  At three-thirty I go to work.  =(


#9 of 419 by hokshila on Tue Dec 17 19:11:47 1996:

Caught up on life with eartha, showered, called the hospital to check on Dad,
called work to let them know when I was coming in, dialed grex, work at 2:30.



#10 of 419 by birdlady on Wed Dec 18 15:36:03 1996:

Monitered the Biology display room for an hour, went and got my grade for
Psychology (B+!), looked for Amanda all over campus then remembered she won't
be here until one o'clock...Shakespeare at one, then work at three.  =)

Woke up.  Went to work.  Read e-mail.  Ate lunch.  Got some work done.  Drove
back to Ann Arbor and had dinnner with Scott.  Went home.  Sacked out forf
a while.  Found that Grex was down.  Did a bunch of stuff to it.  Reboted it.

Woke up.  Ate lunch.  At work now grexing and listening to the radio.


#15 of 419 by robh on Fri Dec 20 20:52:52 1996:

Watched the last three episodes of _Millenium_, and prepared
for tomorrow's solstice ritual.  This is the problem with getting
up at noon, you get so much less done in the morning.  >8)


#16 of 419 by lee on Sat Dec 21 20:06:46 1996:

Woke up really late, attempted to telnet into grex and failed, and am
now grexing through backtalk.


#17 of 419 by otter on Sun Dec 22 15:28:17 1996:

Woke up at 8:00 and cleaned the house. Took care of indoor and outdoor
critters, and doing what has become a Sunday morning ritual: da Grex.


#18 of 419 by robh on Sun Dec 22 15:32:00 1996:

Went to work (ugh) and will soon be watching the football
pre-game, followed by football, football, the football 
wrap-up show, then more football.  >8)


#19 of 419 by lee on Sun Dec 22 15:45:27 1996:

Oh wow!  Backtalk really works!
(sorry, I was only using it because I couldn't get on through telnet and it
never occurred to me that it could work just as well)

Um, woke up, am listening to Casey Kasum's (sp?) Top Twenty and grexing.


#20 of 419 by scg on Sun Dec 22 19:01:20 1996:

Woke up.  Showered.  Am Grexing.  I suppose I should probably go to work
sometime soon.


#21 of 419 by lee on Mon Dec 23 01:28:10 1996:

Played silly computer games all day.
Dinner is sort of being prepared.
Am grexing (again)


#22 of 419 by otter on Wed Dec 25 14:42:10 1996:

Up at 8:30 and straight to the Dungeon to grex, since it booted me yesterday
before I got through my mail (which I always do first).
Going to my mom's to pig out this afternoon, visit the grandfolks, and enjoy
the weather in a more rural setting.


#23 of 419 by lee on Wed Dec 25 18:41:25 1996:

Woke up, sent "Merry Christmas" e-mails to friends/family whom it is
applicable for, and am grexing now.


#24 of 419 by j0ker666 on Thu Dec 26 05:20:38 1996:

WHOOAAAA YOU ALL HAVE GREAT FUCKING LIVES GET A GUN AND PULL THE TRIGGER
FUCKIN LOSERS


#25 of 419 by rcurl on Sat Dec 28 19:00:31 1996:

If that is true, what are you doing here? I think you are lonesome.


#26 of 419 by birdlady on Sat Dec 28 21:35:25 1996:

Woke up to the phone ringing, accepted my bf's mother's invitation to join
their family for Christmas dinner (relatives came from downstate, so it's
today), listened to my father yell at me, listened to my mother disapprove
of my outfit ( a kilt and blouse is unsuitable to do dishes in ), took
ornaments off the tree, practiced the piano, did dishes, watched a movie,
escaped to the library to check my e-mail.  Next is church so I don't have to
get up tomorrow morning, then I'm off to the "in-law's".


#27 of 419 by otter on Sun Dec 29 06:16:34 1996:

Had Hell-day at the Midas. Why do all the pissed-off flakes show up on
Saturday? Did you know that it's my personal doing that Midas International
doesn't keep weekend hours? I am also personally responsible for the operation
of a Midas in Topeka, Kansas. (I get around.)
Ran screaming home, showered off the day, and watched a movie. Now grexing
naked in the basement. Whew!


#28 of 419 by lee on Sun Dec 29 15:51:40 1996:

Visited some friends yesterday and am now grexing.

Re: #26 In-laws huh?  Gotta seee mine today too :)


#29 of 419 by denise on Mon Dec 30 02:15:08 1996:

I did some chores today, along with some computer work, too. AND went swimming
this afternoon and then out to dinner with a friend afterwards. Did a couple
more chores... then watched a movie. After checking some conferences here,
I'll probably go read a book for awhile. 


#30 of 419 by scg on Mon Dec 30 05:09:20 1996:

Got up.  Showered.  Grexed.  Went to work.  Went to my parents' house for
dinner with my grandpa.  Came back to work.  Will probably go home and go to
sleep sometime soon.  (can you tell that I'm on vacation this week?)


#31 of 419 by robh on Mon Dec 30 05:16:02 1996:

(Lucky.)

Went to work, spent time at my parents' house watching football
on TV with my dog - she wasn't interested in the games, and given
how lopsided they were, I can't blame her - then came home and
slept a lot.


#32 of 419 by hokshila on Mon Dec 30 06:11:50 1996:

Woke up from my neice pulling one of my hairs out, then another, than another
until I woke up. Had breakfast. Visited with the in-laws, then drove my neice
to Flint (from White Cloud), the brother-in-law to Ann Arbor, the
brother-out-law to Ypsilanti, then home. Then unpacked, did some laundry,
dishes, made several phone calls, whatched some tv, read "Crow Dog: four
generations of lakota medicine men", made some coffee, checked the e-mail,
now the bbs....


#33 of 419 by lee on Mon Dec 30 17:29:00 1996:

Last night was a big family gathering.  Today we're taking it easy; just woke
up shortly before noon and am grexing now.


#34 of 419 by birdlady on Mon Dec 30 19:55:41 1996:

Showered, dressed, made pizza, got my car from the mechanic, balanced my
checkbook (*ack!*), and came here.  Next is to work for a 13 hour day.  End
of the year sucks...


#35 of 419 by scott on Mon Dec 30 23:56:49 1996:

Got up, restarted Grex on the way to work, restarted Grex during lunch break,
went back to work, went to dojo and did some karate practice, dropped by
Pumpkin and restarted Grex again on way home.


#36 of 419 by otter on Tue Dec 31 20:04:27 1996:

Worked from 7 'til noon, did year-end computer stuff and laughed while the
phone rang off the wall. Preparing to go out with friends tonight. Happy new
year, everyone.


#37 of 419 by lee on Wed Jan 1 22:33:36 1997:

Happy New Year!!!!!!!

Woke up extremely late after staying out late last night at a party.  Made
lunch, jammed with the pseudo-band, and am grexing now.


#38 of 419 by robh on Wed Jan 1 23:00:26 1997:

If by "today" you mean the 1st, then I started the day at work
and stayed there until a bit past 8 AM.  Other than that, I've
slept.  >8)
