And bedtime.
So, I have two alarm clocks -- one set for workdays and one set for Sundays. I forgot that I'd reset my workday alarm clock for Saturday, so despite my having turned my alarm clock on last night, it still hadn't gone off when I woke up at 7:28 this morning.
This is not entirely a bad thing, as I don't even know when I got to sleep last night. I went to bed around 9:45, was still awake around 10:30, got up and puttered on the computer and went back to bed around 11:30, was still awake around 11:55, got a book and a flashlight and read about 70 pages.

Good things about today:
- I woke up with enough time to take a shower (and eat breakfast!) and still get to work on time.
- Someone mentioned Reiki in comments on a flister's entry the other day, and it got me thinking, and she replied to my comment and so now I'm maybe setting up an appointment.
- My mom came in to tickets to Pirates! at the Huntington for this Saturday -- so I am skipping the Presbyterian collegiate ministry conference to go to that.
- Spinach ravioli on the pasta bar.
- Demo Part 2 of the online system we'll be using for Recruiting next year.
- Half-day on Friday, June 5. I had totally forgotten about the Light Lunch tradition, which is canceled this year due to budget concerns but we still get to leave at noon. (Possibly I will get my hair cut that afternoon.)
- Katie and I got crepes at Mr. Crepe. We each did a build-your-own savory crepe (I did mozzarella, spinach, avocado, sun-dried tomato) and split a dessert crepe (strawberries and Nutella -- mmm... Nutella!). She mentioned that she hadn't had crepes since we last went out for crepes at Arrow Street like 8 months ago, and so then we were trying to remember when that was. She said, "I remember there was some hot topic," and I suggested maybe it was about so-and-so and she said definitely and then she rememebered and oh yeah, GT's reminiscing. We ended up talking for four hours.
- I called Maytag and set up an appointment for tomorrow.
- I pulled files off a 3½-inch floppy for Prof.D.
- I helped Laura with some of her stuff.
- I did some work on the AAR.

- Going to the gym. I didn't get to go today 'cause I overslept and stuff, but my repairperson isn't due until at least 1pm, so while I am taking the entire day off from work, I am going in to the gym in the morning.
- Getting our washing machine fixed. (Though I am definitely considering the possibility that the person won't have the necessary part or something and will have to schedule a follow-up appointment.)
