That's awful dcp! I hope you get a refund or hotel points or something
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
so I will be clicking his bib number.
Oh, I should check and see if Tim's cousin is running it again. (He's the guy who finished 225th OVERALL a few years ago. That's ridonkulous speed.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Argh! Left my Fitbit at home. Now nothing I do counts.

I know sometimes disruptions are beyond a hotel's control, but multiple carbon monoxide alarms in the wee hours sounds like something they need to be apologetic about to the point of refunds or vouchers.

Yeah, there should be some kind of "thanks for your patience" gesture at the least, I would hope.
Hey, company provided lunch today! Three-hour meeting around it, but still.

Hi Becky!
dcp- that sound like being in college dorms again. Not fun!
It is only 63 here, but I feel like it is 100 degrees. I am so sick of being hot! It's not like hot flashes, I am just constantly really, really hot. Sometimes I steam up my glasses!

Yipes dcp! I agree that you deserve a refund or points or something. Carbon monoxide alerts are not your fault. Hope the rest of the day makes up for the early start.
Argh! Left my Fitbit at home. Now nothing I do counts.
No, it means everything counts as much as you think it should! Or at least that's how it works in my head. My DH and I both use the Fit app on our phones, only his phone credits him every step whereas my phone decides that the same amount of time walking around isn't 'exercise' because it can tell it all happened in the same space, like say our house or the mall. But I say if my DH got 30 minutes of exercise walking around Ikea then so did I. My phone is not the boss of me!
Um, I may have issues.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Not only am I stuck at home and unable to get to the doctor, or even get in touch with the doctor, I had to call in to a super boring conference call, by phone, so I can't see the screen everyone is discussing.

So tired. I had to get up for Reasons at 3 AM and didn't get back to bed till 4. I slept well and comfy till 7, but three hours was not sufficient to make up for the break. Blah.

My Fitbit kind of is the boss of me. But I lack discipline on my own. That's weird how y'all get recorded differently - I would be pretty unreasonable about that, I suspect.
I could turn on the step counter functionality of my phone, I suppose, but I also have no pockets. It is hard being me today. Or maybe very easy, if looked at from a certain angle. In any case, I'm not going to be able to get my 250 steps/hr during my 3 hour meeting, so maybe it's better to have another excuse to write off the day exercise-wise (until I get home, anyway).
