Eek! So much to do.

Filed under: — Aprille @ 9:16 am

UPDATE: It’s 4:52 (though it will probably be a bit later by the time I finish this update), and I have accomplished a lot today. Woot! A strike-through in the task list below means I got it done. It’s not everything, but I also got things done that weren’t on the list, such as getting all those Division of Continuing Ed courses cross-listed and buying a birthday present for a friend.
Also, thanks for all those nice adjectives you gave me. It’s probably a good thing that there are no mean adjectives available, because then it would be much more depressing to read.

This is going to be an outrageously busy week. But you know what I get to do at the end of it? Fly to London. That will be so great.

I am going to list out all the crap I have to do in the near future. But that’s boring for you. So I’m going to do something else that will also be boring for you: ask you to kindly do this little activity where you pick adjectives that describe me. I already did it for Erin.

Do it here.

Curious about Erin’s?

Now here’s the very boring part where I list out what I have to do. This is more for my own purposes than for entertainment.

  • Get in touch with poster presenters for ICON Day. Find out this stuff:
  • What is the title of your presentation and who should be listed as the contact in the program?
  • What resources do you need? Laptop? Projector? Easel?
  • Remind them that we hope they use wireless; if they need wired, they have to tell me.
  • Do you have any special power needs?
  • Check on the ICON highlighters. Have they been shipped yet?
  • Get raffle tickets
  • Inform those who are getting lunches of that fact; ask about vegetarians
  • Get final count on box lunches
  • Update registration interface to include those whom I know are coming but haven’t registered
  • Recruit AT staff to help with registration desk
  • Order box lunches and coffee/treats for break
  • Fill out massage therapy form (you know how I complain about my job? Well, they’re arranging for us to get 15-minute massages. So it’s ok.)
  • Sign up for interview workshop in the College of Business
  • Buy travel-sized hygiene products
  • Get passport out of safe deposit box
  • Ay yi yi.

      Interview workshop? Are we planning a career change, or just keeping our skills fresh?

      No, it’s a workshop to make me better at hiring people. I hire people a lot.

      That is a handsome to-do list you’ve got there. It’s really satisfying to look at to-do lists with a whole bunch of items crossed off, even if they aren’t my to-do list.
