    What are some of your more mundane plans that you wouldn't ordinarily post?

    I need to get a dumpster to clean out inside and behind my garage and remove so much of my ex's old debris from past projects. I can't decide if I need a full or half dumpster.

    Once I have an open basement I'll be able to do some projects of my own.

    Get the full dumpster and then the neighbors can sneak their trash into it as well, just make sure you get yours in first. Even if you get the half dumpster the neighbors are going to find an old mattress and stuff it in there, so be ready to fill it up before they can.

    We're getting a new shed!

    Does that count?

    Need to fix the septic tank. My expensive option has been vetoed by the local authority, so it's time for the eye wateringly expensive option. Joy.

    I think I need to upgrade my blinds to wood slats. My cats keep breaking the plastic ones.

    I'm contemplating building an infinity mirror either for the kitchen or the bathroom, trying to decide on the dimensions at this point.

    This actually sounds like a really awesome plot point in a sci-fi/fantasy novel: Gadref was wise beyond his years -- in time, he would indeed become a wizard of legend -- perhaps it was his youth then that tempted him? Or perhaps even one of such great innate magick and wisdom could never resist the lull of the Infinity Mirror with its unequaled powers of revelation and prophecy. For whomsoever beheld the Infinity Mirror would bear witness to all dimensions, all worlds, all futures and pasts, reflected in a single point. The knowledge it would gift him would be invaluable, but could he wield such power? He was only a boy, after all... A boy afraid to glimpse his true reflection. A reflection which would have revealed his destiny.

    I have to go to Chicago for work tomorrow and I don't get to do anything fun there. Literally fly in, drop shit off at hotel, go to work dinner near hotel, sleep, get up mad early for work meeting, fly home. My mundane plans are to pack and charge electronics.

    I have to get some Canadian cash for my upcoming trip to Calgary (for the Stampede).

    Oh, and a cowboy hat. Yahoo. :beer:

    Are you contemplating...TWO sheds?

    My hair's a mess. I think it's time to shave it again.

    How about a phaser? A low stun setting at just the right moment might do the trick.

    No, I've only got one. I've had one for some time, but a few years ago I said I was thinking of getting another, and since then some people have called me "Two Sheds".

    Actually, I lie. I now have four sheds. Three are technically part of the house though. This will be the first free-standing one we have.

    Oh god that really was mundane....

    I know what I'd like to do to the people on my street scaring the shit out of my cats right now.

    I don't think that would be too mundane, though. It would probably be newsworthy.

    I'm going to purchase a freestanding "portable" air conditioner for my apartment. I put "portable" in ironic quotes because those things are tethered to an exhaust hose that has to be vented through a window, so they're not really very portable.

    And I'm going to get dressed in a few minutes. Probably wouldn't be a good idea to go out naked.

    I have to buy a new pair of sneakers. I really hate shopping for shoes, I am not sure why I hate it so much.

    I got to start doing any kind of exercising. I need to loose weight. I plan on walking 10 minutes today to get started. Plus Monday I got find out when I see my doctor about figuring out how I want to do my OCD/depression medicine because I have stopped taking them because I didn't like how they made me feel but I can't just stop completely.
