Today I had a day off! A whole day! I worked 60 hours this week (crammed into the first 6 days of the week). So today I took myself out on the town. It was a beautiful day, and I wish I had gone running in the park (maybe tomorrow). But I did spend a sweaty hour at the gym. Then I put on a T-shirt. And sneakers. Clothes that I like, and reflect who I am! YAY! It was great.
The first thing on my to do list was to bike over to "mutiny now" the used book store and browsed the shelves for ages before buying some yellowing Piers Anthony books. I love the way used books smell! Then I headed around the corner to Senor Burritos where I celebrated Molly's excellent report by buying her a burrito. Unfortunately Molly is in Connecticut, so I had to eat the burrito for her :)
Then I biked to Starbucks where I spent the rest of the afternoon sitting in the sunshine and drinking a chai. It was delicious, and a stranger walking by told me he liked my shirt. (Sonic the hedgehog, in case you were wondering).
When Noel got out of work I went home, and we went out to dinner, where we ate more Mexican food, and had a brisk evening bike ride before we returned home to watch "Legend," an old Tom Cruise movie, where he wears a lot of glitter, but no pants!
Best Day Ever!
Glad you had some time off.
