1. Being up early and giving my daughter a drive to her coop workplace and returning DVDs to minimize the number of trips out today.
2. Watching the documentary Joy Division in the morning. Grant Gee tells the story of the band in a subtle and understated way. Visually and sonically he does some really interesting things as he did with his Radiohead documentary Meeting People is Easy .
3. Watching Beijing Bicycle in the afternoon. Reesie recommended it to me almost a year ago and I finally watched it and I liked it.
4. Having lots of music to listen to. When I got an iPod a few years ago I started listening more and right now I have 12.2 days of music and podcasts in iTunes. I could listen to stuff continuously for more than a week.
5. Telling my son we’d be having cottage cheese curry and rice for supper and seeing his face light up. It’s his favourite.

1. Waking up early and reading in bed as I sipped coffee. Luxury!
2. A veggie burger and spicy fries for lunch.
3. Getting some plastic containers for storing food and cereal after ants got into some of the boxes.
4. Going around the yard and eliminating some of the ant nests that are around the house.
5. Continuing my movie marathon with My Blueberry Nights (a bit disappointing) and The Butcher Boy (quite good and intense).
1. Morning coffee. It’s very tasty and I love starting my day with it.
2. Going to get some groceries and taking my time.
3. Continuing to work through my list of films. I watched 3:10 to Yuma , which was good, but I didn’t like it as much as the original, which was simpler. Why do things need to explode in an action film?
4. Having a pizza for supper. It was one that isn’t frozen, but has the dough and the toppings in a pan that you just pop in the over and cook.
5. Reading about Wikipedia before going to bed.
