A change will do you good

What, me, procrastinate from writing my thesis? Never! At least I procrastinate from going to the gym by actually writing my thesis :/

I'm torn with the look of my blog, not that this is that important. I'd like to do something simple, a shade off white, with burgundy or dark red side bars, or something that makes the blog mainly red, without getting in the way and making it look cramped. Does anybody know of other places to find free templates?

Other things I did today, instead of writing, have involved going to four different places in town to get an estimate for some minor body work, getting my car inspected, changing the address on my registration, and renewing it. And cleaning out my email and catching up on webcomics, blogs, ravelry, and livejournal. I haven't done facebook yet... hmmm...

Yesterday I had a minor snafu signing up for the Ravelimpics, somehow thinking it was going on this month, and was sorely disappointed that the mitts I finished this weekend and the new ones I started aren't going to count. I have to think of something else to make. Maybe socks. I've made socks for other people, but I have yet to finish a pair for me...

I finished reading the first book in the Dresden Series, Storm Front, a couple of nights ago. It was a fun book! The guy used a few too many words describing everything, but at least he wasn't as bad at it as Tolkien! I liked it all in all, and am planning to read the rest of the series, intermixed with the True Blood books. I like fantsy, if you haven't noticed! I should probably open up Word before I start describing my D&D characters or something. And this thing thinks my emoticons are html...
