May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

YAY shrift!

I don't know for sure if I can take off of work that week but I might be able to be in SF for lunch or something.

Aww, have fun you crazy SF kids!

-t, i find that the heart rate calculators are seriously off for me. Because if you're judging by being able to talk and/or sing (I've heard if you can't talk you're working too hard but if you can sing you're not working hard enough), I can still hold a conversation when my heart rate is almost to what the calculator thinks is my MAX. So, no.

My back and shoulders are crawling and there's s good chance my swim tonight will be thwarted by weather. Sigh...

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, I don't think that's my issue, meara. I've experimented with setting the max differently a bit in the last few weeks and I think the setting I'm using now if not totally accurate at least lines up okay with how hard I feel like I'm working for the higher levels of effort anyway. I just have a high resting hr. Trending down over time if my little spreadsheet graph can be believed, though, so that's something.

Early morning teleconference is an early morning training this week. So bored.

Blech. My morning call is not until 9, hooray! That's what happens when no one in Central tells me what time would be good for them.

No morning calls, but I just realized I have 3 meetings today, I've spent the last 90 minutes being defeated by this stupid query and I'm possibly preemptively cranky. I wished dire things upon the idiot earbudded student pedestrians who think nothing of walking into a street from blind spots between parked cars, as if that isn't dire enough. I'm surprised half the JHU population makes it to graduation, IJS.

First meeting shortly.

Today I am calling 25 people to ask them if they really wanted to place a hold on the sheet music for Taylor Swift's 1989 album, or maybe they wanted the CD instead. My coworker gets Ed Sheeran.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

flea, that is cracking me up! Imagine their faces as they came in to pick up the CD, and got the sheet music!

I used to borrow sheet music from the library all the time, though. I remember being so excited when I realized they had musical scores!

I never knew! That could've saved me some money.
