Get an emailed hypothetical business pitch from That Guy
Possibly watch a woman abandon her kid in the subway (but probably not)
Endure the PT trying to dislodge my pesky femur from my hip joint
Ice a lot
Get cleared to try squats
Punch Husband in the foot for re-en-sicking us with another mild cold
Go bathing suit shopping
Nap
Discover that sweat interferes with my trackpad

Actually make it to the evening lap swim
Ascertain whether the kid was older than he appeared
Say anything after seeing something
Work on the book

Did
Walk three or so miles before going to the office
Tabulate some survey results
Upload 240 pictures from last night's workshop
Geek out on delineating project area boundaries for data collection
Feel a little sick
Wait on the corner for 5 minutes so I wouldn't have to chat with our landlord
Return to a sweaty, sweaty house
Didn't
Respond to any of the "Obamacare isn't a big deal" people
Sit silently through our client meeting
Know what to do with my blank
Leave when I said I was going to
Pay much heed to the mention of a possible raise

Spend 13 or so hours at work
Give 10 and 5 minute calls to get people to leave on time
Put together a pretty darn good public meeting
Devour lamb meatballs at home

Completely restrain myself from laughing at Boss Man's running-mouth affliction
Go outside
Screw around much at all
Forget to blog

Did
Stand watch over a bunch of slow readers on the train
Do half-depth lunges!
Get that deeper-than-pain pukey feeling
Work work work
Sing about evil, scurvy love
Didn't
Nap in the stairwell
Get out of work before 8:30
Go to the gym
Dazzle anyone with my phone-scrabble prowess

Did
Regret all that peanut butter
Remember that China Mieville is not my favorite
Do lots of work all day
Call Boss Man just slightly on some egregious bullshit
Enjoy a day without Lady Boss
Punk out of the gym because it was late and I was tired
Remember that Aaron Sorkin is really good at that thing
Didn't
Have time to make progress on finding the next office manager
Screw anything up
Remember to put our camping trip on the calendar
Fall asleep on the train on the way home
Object to the slightly smarmy
Remember to hate my job

Have a nice time getting poked in the gut this morning
