I randomly decided to brush off the dust here by doing a
Day in the Life post, so if you weren’t bored by the lack of content, you can
be bored by my day! No, but really. I think it’ll be an interesting day but
first you have to get through six hours of me staring at a computer screen. I
apologize in advance.
5:30am My alarm goes off. SO TIRED so eff that. I hit
snooze twice.
5:48am okay, okay! I’m up! Plus, Louie needs to pee and
he’s all snorty up in my grill telling me so, so I’m up and walking the dog. No
picture because it’s too dark (and also because I didn’t think of doing this
until an hour later)
6:20am I am done and ready to go to work and I’ve already
cleaned the poo off the floor an inch from the puppy pad and everything, so
it’s time to leave! Yesterday I was many hours early for work. Today I will be
… on time.
6:30am But first, Starbucks! Okay, they totally got me
with their “buy these three things and get 100 extra stars” because two of them
were things I already buy occasionally anyhow. Today is the third: ANY LATTE!
(I chose cascara) and for extra oomph, I got the bacon sous vide bites. Remind
me of this when I complain to my doctor today about my weight gain on my new
meds.
7:00am At work! And working! So riveting. Here’s my
coffee.
7:20am First things first (after deleting all the Living
Social emails) is to deal with the 23 emails in my inbox that I haven’t dealt
with. This requires listening to Leap Year for the millionth time.
8:00am Time to take my meds! I have an alarm at 8am, and
a follow up one at 11am just in case. I missed both alarms one day last week
and it was a bad time. I don’t recommend it (Keeping it real over here)
8:15am “Hang” is a verb. It’s not a sandwich.
9:00am Still working on those emails. We can pretty much
all agree that emails are the devil right? I know some people in politics would
agree.
9:30am I have three left but I can’t anymore with the
emails. One is something I’m waiting for information on and the other two are
very in depth. I’ll tackle them later today, hopefully.
Instead! I will work on writing a letter for work. Bah.
10:30am Where did that last hour go? At least I’ve been
productive. C texted me my daily Louie picture.
11:00am So I wasn’t going to go to this meeting until I
found out it was for credit, but it was one hour and then got in there and it
was TWO HOURS straight through lunch and no one brought us food. Not cool.
1:15p I make a beeline to Jimmy John’s
1:25pm Back at my desk, a #12 no mayo combo spread out on
my desk and doing email. Again. Some day I’ll get to something else.
2:20pm Some days I feel like a hamster in a treadmill.
Here’s a gratuitous shot of my keyboard.
2:45pm I’m out! I have appointments this afternoon so I
had to leave early. I never got to anything except emails – how sad is that?
2:50pm Listening to podcasts … I don’t know how not
everyone is listening to Ask Me Another – it’s the actual best.
3:30pm my psychiatrist is running late. Sigh. Nervous because we have things to talk about.
5:00pm MY TATTOO APPOINTMENT!!!!!!!!
6:30pm tattoo completed and I’ve texted a picture of it
to everyone I know.
7:30pm There’s a new noodle place near my house that I
figured we could try rather than me cooking. It was delightful and I want to go
back to try everything on the menu.
8:00pm Making lunches for the kids for tomorrow’s camp
because I didn’t do all of them on Sunday. Be like normal me: make all the
lunches on Sunday so you don’t have to do this every day.
8:10pm there is laundry I should be folding but instead I’m
snuggling with my pup, my wine and my book.
9:00pm retire to the bedroom, again with the pup, wine,
book and now added husband!
10:15pm my strict bedtime is 10:00 but somehow I’ve been
stretching that lately. Lights out at 10:15 and I was asleep almost
immediately.
So there was my day! It wasn’t typical; usually I work
till 3:45 and go pick up the kids from camp and go home and clean or cook or something,
but it was a little different and hey! Maybe more interesting. Or maybe you’re
sleeping through this. Meh.
Happy whatever day today is!
