Practicing my new HTML skills

What the hell am I doing?

Here is a bulleted list.

Today I did three things:

• got up
  
• went to work
  
• went home
  

Here is a numbered list.

This is what I had for lunch:

1. lasagna from the Byng cafeteria
   
2. frozen peach juice / slurpee confection, also from the caf
   
3. yogurt from home
   

I could try my hand at a nested list...

Here are some things I did today:

• got up
  
  • ignored my alarms (both of them) as long as I could
    
  • finally dragged myself out of bed, and tried to get out of the room without tripping on the cat
    
  • fed said cat
    
  • brushed my teeth, hair, etc
    
  • ate cereal while chatting with sleepy mom on MSN
    
• went to work
  
  • got in the cold, cold car
    
  • eventually started it and crawled down the lane while waiting for it to warm up (gutless piece of crap!)
    
  • kachunk-kachunked a few blocks until the engine decided to wake up properly (something I had not yet done to the full)
    
  • wound my way down S.W. Marine, in traffic, listening to the worst joke of the day yet aired on FOX 99.3
    
• went home
  
  • Yesterday I was ambushed by a frustrated dad, today I was accosted by his charming wife... she wanted to know how come my hair staid fresh as ever in a french roll after working a whole day with kids!
    
  • Went online upstairs to print out and read Beginner's Guide to HTML, of which activity you now see the result
    
  • Spent 30 minutes trying to photocopy in order what the printer decided to mix up
    
  • Planned the day for tomorrow's teaching
    
  • Actually left the school premises before dark
    
  • Stopped at Anderson's Animal Hospital to get refunded on cat food overpayment, and ask for advice on how to end cat sibbling threat of mutual annihilation
    
  • Parked car
    
  • Checked mail (bills, what else?)
    
  • Read Beginner's Guide to HTML on my ever-so-comfy leather armchair
    
  • Decided to try my hand at it, all in the name of school-related research.
    

Well, and how does it all look?

(I forgot to try changing the alignment, so here goes!)

Not bad, not bad at all, if I do say so myself.
Now... how do I change fonts and sizes and colours?
Back to the books it is for me!
