Weird....
I never get up before 8:00. In fact, usually when my alarm goes off at 8:00 I hang around dozing until I hear Alex's Buzz Lightyear alarm clock go off at 8:15.
Friday I woke up at 6:30. Hauled my ass out of bed at 7:00, got a long, hot, uninterrupted shower, got dressed and ready for the day, and took my time going about it. Got Alex out of bed at 8:00.
The day itself went interesting. Had arranged a coffee meeting with a client - *just for coffee* - it didn't happen. Managed to get Alex to the sitter's for 11:30, to the office to teach a class talking about BlackBerry, applications and use for business. I had planned 3 hours for one client and 1 hour for another one. Client B never communicated with me (he is known for non-communication except when it's convenient for him). The project for Client A only took 90 minutes, then I spent 30 minutes kibbitzing on the phone with her after a short project review. Her cats pee all over her house and owners haven't found a training solution to stop the evil behaviours.
R and I went to 4vidar 's book release party last night at the Tartan pub in Orleans. We enjoyed spending time with people we seldom see, and picked up an autographed copy of the book. It's a beautiful soft cover with stories and colour photos. When it does come online for sale, it will be $14.95USD. I spent a few minutes chatting with kattale , vikingbrynn and a number of others.
Today I was supposed to have tea with jdhobbes but he hasn't shown up after spending some time with jellyjenn this morning. I think he got caught up in tea and pancakes.
Of course I was considering doing groceries today but R is busy getting set up for an investment seminar at the Chimo (St Laurent at the 417) at 7:00 tonight - apparently the Psychic fair is also at the same location at the same time. And with all the running around and preparation he is doing, I'm chained to the house on baby duty.
That's okay with me. Having gotten up at 6:30am yesterday, went to bed at 1:00am this morning (*really... why did I stay up so late?*) and awakened by Alex at 8:00am this morning, I'm totally tuckered out.
I think I'll go make a pot of Earl Grey (no wait... I haven't done groceries so have no milk for tea!), go watch a movie.
My feet are cold. I'd better bring a blanket.
