Work/Life Integration - A Work In Progress

This "running daze" blog was supposed to be a combo of my running info (the "running" part) and things going on in my head (the "daze")... Yet somehow, all that I've been posting is workout summaries, which makes me feel like a robot. ....So, where's the daze? Lately, I've been so inundated with work that I've barely had any time to keep up with anything else (hence the one-run-per-week pattern you may have noticed).

So, sadly some things going on my head have been:
  1. When should I schedule a meeting for myself to go get my car washed? (Yes, I want to PAY to get my car washed (inside and out) while I sit and catch up on my reading of "The Kite Runner.")
  2. Should I go to the grocery store during my lunch break and keep the refrigerated items in the "team refrigerator" until I take them home at the end of the day (or, as we office robots say, at "close of business")?
  3. What kind of pictures should I decorate my office with? - One of my funner thoughts
  4. How cool is my new personal planner, which I picked up this week (during my lunch break, of course) at the local Barnes & Noble?!! It's light green, comes with its own pen, and fits easily in my purse. So far, I've been filling it up with birthdays, planned vacations, important weddings dates.. - Yes, I am sad...
So, in conclusion, I need to take a chill pill and then get slap-happy drunk. =)
