So…. day 2 of quota of 31 days to up my blog to stratospheric heights and already it has got me depressed. After day 1, I realise I have got dibs on little bits of everything but need something to pull it all together under one biggish sized hat. I did spend lots of time on this last night and have a vague inkling of what needs to be done.
And so, hey! List post. Now, list posts are supposed to be real good cos according to the visitor stats, people flock to click on links that scream “5 reasons why I’d love to deck you” and “How to deck the scheming former pal” rather than one that is titled “My friend is a sod”.
Right now, my head is chock full of things I need to do before I can jet off to Chennai on Friday so let me list them out here.
1. Finish the template related work for the updating of my friend’s site that I have been working on for the past couple of weeks. Though new, this site has really taken off and I am panicking that I bring the whole thing crashing down. Also, I haven’t worked with Joomla since graduating and that is taking a bit of getting used to, as well.
2. Complete the article I am researching and writing on the unemployability crisis and related issues in India. After a long time, I am visiting various sites to dig out the stats to formulate and substantiate my theories.
3. Finish packing – this is a never-ending job as each time I grab things that need to make their way to Chennai with us, my daughter follows me, picks up the same things and scatters them all over the house. I also need to go shopping to buy some last minute must grabs.
4. Put the kitchen to right. It is okay now but I want to make sure it is easy for the spouse to get cooking.
5. I would also like to make some basic stuff like idli batter and so on, just to make life easy the first weekend.
6. Wax.
7. Paint my nails.
