~Sunday~ The laziest day evah. I kept hitting the “virtual snooze button,” and by that I mean not waking up every nine minutes, but more like every 20 or 30, and going down for another count. At around 4:00, I finally got my ass to the gym, where after stretching I did 300 (15 sets … Read more
~Friday~ I drove into the office today, using one of those three remaining daily parking permits that are expiring on 12/31/10 to park in the Van Allen Deck. The suite in which my office resides was deserted when I got in, which is odd, because I’m usually one of the last people in. I took … Read more
~Thursday~ I caught the university’s #9 Greek Village bus at Avent Ferry & Gorman at 8:30. I did have on long pants and a sweatshirt, but at one point, I thought, “Damn, it’s freezing out here!” I looked at the weather app on my phone, and it sure enough was: 32° At the stop after … Read more
~Wednesday~ I woke up feeling much better this morning, but definitely not 100%. I guess that expired soup was okay, as I saw no ill effects (literally) from it. By the time I finished packing my laptop back it was part technology toter, part lunch bag, and part medicine chest. Something has happened to the … Read more
~Monday~ I left my house at 8:14, was at the bus stop at 8:15, and the bus arrived at 8:20. That’s the kind of timing I like when it’s in the 30s in the morning. There were only three other people already on when I boarded, and I was kind of surprised when the bus … Read more
~Sunday~ I got in eight hours of sleep again, for which I’m grateful. Precious few holiday days left. Like zero. I kept putting it off, but at about 3:30, I finally went to the gym. Since food is such an integral part of my life, I’m going to describe today’s workout using a food metaphor. … Read more
~Wednesday~ I rolled out of bed at 8:30 and after putting on a pot of coffee, logged into work. I was an obedient employee, and logged off between 2:30 and 3:00. At around 3:00, I headed over to Great Clips for a $7.99 haircut, where LaToya cut my hair again, and finally didn’t say, “Have … Read more
~Tuesday~ I’ve been running behind in the mornings lately, so today I set my alarm ten minutes earlier than I have been. I was out at the bus stop at 8:17, and the bus arrived at 8:23. It was a beautiful morning weather-wise, and the sun caught the trees near my house and stop at … Read more
~Monday~ I was running behind this morning, and arriving at the bus stop at 8:18, I couldn’t be sure if I hadn’t missed the 8:15 bus. At 8:29, I was just about to admit defeat, when the bus pulled up to the nearby intersection. There was a new driver behind the wheel, and he didn’t … Read more
~Friday~ I drove in to work this morning and parked in the Van Allen parking deck with one of the five daily parking permits I have left for 2010. I’ve mentioned here before that when you take public transportation to work at NC State, you get 12 parking permits each year to use as you … Read more
