Today I did something that was....

Basically the idea of this thread is you pick up on four things you did that you enjoyed, that you needed to do, those that were a good deed and those that were naughty but possibly nice. Just so that you go through the day thinking "yeah, I've enjoyed myself today" or "man, I got away with some serious shit today!" - no day is wasted.

Necessary: stopped my nose bleeding. Twice.
Fun: played several hands of internet poker.
Good for the ego: Offered to lend the chaps in work my Setanta box so they could watch the Calzaghe fight.
Bad for the soul: Started another annoying thread on Metropol.

I know it's early for some, but does anyone else wish to contribute to the thread?

Necessary: Got something checked out that I needed to do and hadn't done due to fear/laziness until today.
Fun: Nothing yet but I've still got about seven hours...
Good for the ego: Ditto
Bad for the soul: Went back to bed and slept from 11.20 to 15.50.

Necessary: Did a Tesco shop and still managed to spend twice as much as I intended to. I have now realised the more people you bring with you, the more people like to place things in your trolley and casually promise to 'pay you back'.
Fun: Fed my worrying Bejeweled habit.
Good for the ego: Letting flatmates use my room as a storage container over the summer, so they don't have to try carry boxes of crockery back on flights to America.
Bad for the soul: Achieved new Ben and Jerry's consumption speed record, followed by equally record levels of self-hatred and woe.

Necessary:
Did all my laundry and then ironed it - except socks and towels as they don't need ironing.

Fun:
Touched 120mph along a deserted M4 on my way home from work this evening

Good for the ego:
Arranged a date with a young lady next week

Bad for the soul:
Bought a big hot bacon and egg baguette for lunch

Since I've only been awake for half an hour, how about I do this for yesterday?

Necessary: Went into uni.
Fun: Watched Boston Legal.
Good for the ego: Imparted my infinite wisdom to the two first-year economics classes I tutor on Fridays.
Bad for the soul: Ate half a bag of jellybeans... and now contemplating eating the other half. Mmmm. Jellybeans.

Oh Cdd you're wrong again. Jamez and ego belong in the same sentence.

Was this for fun or...?

EDIT: And why have I only just noticed how many details you've given about the car? Why have you done that?
