sun, gas, movies, etc.

Today it decided to be Springlike outside. I'm not holding my breath quite yet though as this Winter has hung on and on and on ... though I'll take beautiful days like today as they come. I filled my car with gas for the bizarrely low price of 54.9 cents a liter due to a 35 cent per liter discount I got from the grocer I patronize. P. and I went to see Monsters Versus Aliens, which was solid DreamWorks stuff and quite enjoyable if not ground breaking.

Spent some time murking about in krunner's list presentation again to it suck yet less, some time pondering how we are doing in terms of interactivity in various places of KDE's code base and also looked at ways of elegantly solving the issue of wallpaper configuration changes not being saved out instantly like every else in Plasma does. I also managed to sneak in an hour of reading in the bath this evening, finishing the book I was currently reading.

So a fairly calm and mundane day with nothing overly spectacular occurring, but it felt good. :)

(.. a couple hours later ..)

I nearly forgot: I came home today to find a big blue bin with wheels on it and instructions on how to do the recycling thing. In one of those "this is great, and I can hardly believe it" moments, I realized that it will soon be April and the first curb-side service recycling program run by the city will be starting up. Huzzah ...

@aseigo: ... and the first curb-side service recycling program run by the city will be starting up.

(wish I was so lucky as to have a curb-side service recycling program.)

I just got my big blue bin a few months ago and I LOVE the fact that I no longer have to sort NOR do I have to schlep my recycling to the recycle station! Huzzah indeed!
