Morning!  I love Thursdays.  They are one step away from Friday and everyone waits for their favorite TV shows to come on this night.  I grew up a Friends girl for sure.

I started my day at cardiac rehab and spent more time than usual with the patients which resulted in staying nearly an hour later than usual.  Luckily I brought food with me.

I lightly toasted the pumpkin spice English muffin that my boss had given me and topped it with sunflower butter.  Pumpkin spice English muffins are delicious!  Soft and subtle.

As I was coming back from cardiac rehab I saw the concierge employee bringing out lunch to our office.  A dietitian and nurse organized a group luncheon just because.  I had an apple and brie grilled cheese that was eaten in record time.  I couldn’t get enough to eat yesterday.  I think it had something to do with the 10×400 intervals from the day before.

Ever find yourself repeating things at work?  I find myself often saying

We underestimate how much we eat and overestimate how much we exercise.

After completing diabetes charting, entering productivity, and updating my diabetes education hours I headed home feeling slightly under-the-weather.  Everyone seems to be coming down with something including Aaron.  I do not want to get sick again right before a race.  I just went through that with my Madison Mini Marathon. 

I was tempted to skipped my strength workout but plowed through it.  I put in another Harry Potter movie and did my own strength workout.  Harry Potter is a sure-fire way to feel better.

I prepped dinner at my place but took it over to Aaron’s to cook.  I cooked the potatoes and Brussels sprouts while he cooked the fish.  By the time dinner was done and plated, I started eating as fast as I could.  Close your eyes and imagine this dinner…because there’s no evidence of such a dinner now.

Project for the night: making sure I filled out my application for an absentee ballot.

I’m registered to vote in Bloomington (2 hours south of here) and will be on a plane by 6am on voting day.  It looks like I will be at my first voting booth at the age of 29! 

Final message: Viva Lance Armstrong!
