Bury Me

Even though I was at work until 8:00 PM tonight, I don't feel like I really got anything done.

Well, that's not true, really. I did finish a few things. But for someone who values a clean desk, it's irritating to find yourself burried under mounds and mounds of documents and emails and meeting requests.

So I am working from home tomorrow so that a) I can pick up my friend from high school who is visiting from the airport and b) I can burry myself under the office radar and actually finish a few important projects.

...

OK, I am back. I just sat here thinking about all that I had to do tomorrow morning and started to panic a little bit. So glad that I'm running faster than I used to run. It's nice to be able to finish my runs in less time than they previously required!

Tuesday Stats:
Planned Distance - 4 miles (Easy)
Actual Distance - 4 miles
Time - 35:30
Pace - 8:53/mile (A little faster than easy...)

Wednesday Stats:
Planned Distance - 7 miles Tempo
Actual Distance - 7.7 miles (Oops. I really need a Garmin...)
Time - 1:02:30 (Negative split, though! 32:00 minutes out, 30:30 minutes back - UPHILL!)
Pace - 8:07/mile (Includes my warm-up. So it's pretty much on target for my tempo runs.)

Two good runs under my belt this week, and I have to be honest. I don't REALLY feel like waking up at 6:00 AM tomorrow morning to run AGAIN. I just don't. Maybe that will change after a few hours burried under the covers, though. Here's hoping!

Working from home...what a treat.
Have fun visiting your friend. I still have friends from HS that I get together with and after 5 minutes it's like we've never been apart.

I find that when I am by myself, I get the most done. The min my office has another person persence, my productivity drops.

Hmm, is the title of the post a reference to Modest Mouse's "Bury Me With It"?

Are you excited about San Diego yet?
