Ok, Blogger is acting up this morning. I lost my previous post.
Anyway. My work schedule has been very strange lately. It’s of my own doing, but still strange.
I get twenty days of vacation each year. I know that’s a lot, and it’s certainly one of the benefits of working for the government. Because my work is rarely time-critical, and because I like to travel, I strongly believe in using every iota of vacation time I have…and sometimes more. This year I’ve already overcommitted myself by a couple days. As a result, I’m always trying to earn a credit hour here and a credit hour there so that I can minimize the amount of annual leave I have to take. When Mom was visiting, I worked some strange (re: early!) hours in order to be able to spend more time with her without taking vacation. And recently, I took off almost 16 hours to go to Atlanta, but thanks to my weird scheduling, I only had to use 5.5 annual leave hours.
And all that is a complicated way of explaining why I was here last night until 6:30.
I went home prepared to exercise. It was murderously humid outside, so despite thinking about taking a bike ride (inspired I’m sure by the Tour de France) I decided to elliptical. Alas, alack, one machine was taken and the other was out of order. So instead, I did Dance, Dance Revolution for 40 minutes. I know, I know. It really was a good workout though.

I was seriously impressed with your Dance, Dance Revolution skills. Normally nobody can handle Chrissy, but you were doing pretty well on standard mode!
Sarah says
Yeah, I can hold my own. Not against the crazies you sometimes see in arcades, but against mere mortals… 😉
katie says

katie says

Ha! That would be funny! No, I have DDR in my apartment. I traded in my DVD player for a Playstation, all for DDR…
