I made the executive decision on Friday not to buy dog food until Monday. There were still some kibbles left in the bottom of the dog food container, so it didn’t seem like a big decision at the time. Flash forward to Sunday morning, and I realized that my spatial calculations were off on Friday. …
Is it bedtime yet?
Okay, I was ready to gloat. I only got four hours of sleep last night, and I was feeling fine. In fact, I was 48 minutes early for work this morning and arrived with a delicious cup of peach iced tea in hand. All in all, I was pretty impressed with myself. Then I went…
