Got up, put on my Guns ‘n Roses t-shirt (that I got at Old Navy so it’s not that cool) and headed into work without showering. I wanted to get in early.
Hit Pret for a large coffee and some yogurt (the little pot of goodness because they corrected the calories on the blueberry and granola and it’s 350 now) and got into work at 9:00.
Checked myself out in the mirror and realized that I looked like a guy who went into work without showering. Note to self: you got away with it because it’s Friday but pick your spots with that in future.
Worked: emails, convention presentation materials, new corporate website.
Lunch: Dig Inn. (I didn’t eat any meat today. I’m trying to do that a couple of times a week. I used to get annoyed at vegetarians but factory farming, etc. We can talk about that another time.)
Got into it with one of my oldest friends about Trump. He’s not even a Trump supporter, he just doesn’t hate Trump enough for my taste. New question: can anyone really control or truly justify their political opinions? Or do we just have gut feelings and then retro fit facts and narratives to suit that in our conscious thoughts?
More work: emails, convention presentation materials, new corporate website.
Heading home. Stopped at B, B, & B for some new pillows because, well, I needed new pillows. Went to Whole Foods for some veggies for dinner (like I said, no meat). Annoying commute home on the N.
Home: dishes, laundry.
Girlfriend comes over after her rehearsal. She offers to make dinner while I go for a run. Five miles. I’ve been running 18 miles a week for the past few weeks. Why 18? No idea, it just shook out that way. (Got an email today about my upcoming 5K. I had forgotten about it. That’s where I’m at now. I forget about 5Ks that I’ve signed up for.) Ran in Prospect Park. Felt good. Dinner was great.
We rented Captain America from Vudu. (Does anyone else rent from Vudu? It’s a pretty good service.) We’re trying to catch up on all Marvel movies from recent years. Not an easy task.
Movie ends after midnight. I folded some clothes. Most I just throw back in the hamper to fold tomorrow.
I just went tp unsplash to get a featured image for this post.
So, to answer the question that no one asked, I didn’t write today because I was busy. I still needed to do this before sleeping, though. This is two days in a row of, “I just need to write something.” Sorry about that.
I’m tired but looking back on it, it was a pretty good day.
Hashtag blessed.
