Should be sleepin'

But wanna be bloggin'
I only took three days off, and the huge number of must-answer emails in my mailbox when I returned was almost overwhelming. Remind self to never take vacation days prior to a deadline on a call for articles. I made it through all of them, but many I answered so briefly and then shifted to my "other inbox" in order to deal with them more thoroughly tomorrow. That's boring: why am I writing about email?
I bought new sneakers: Saucony, with green accents. They are so cushiony and bouncy and were on sale! With the mileage I clock each week walking to work and dog-walking, I need to buy quality sneakers that will help me keep a bounce in my step. I walked in them to work and dog-walked today and they required no breaking-in, so I know they fit well. And they're mesh, for summer coolness; does that mean I can buy a warmer pair for walking in the late autumn? I recommend this brand: they have an arch support, are not too high around the Achilles tendon, and cushiony there too around the ankle, so comfy.
I'm just writing to write, in order to get into the habit of doing this more often, and delaying going to bed. Some nights I don't want to go to bed, well that's rare for me actually, but some nights I just don't want to finish with the day, even if I'm just reading or surfing online. Tonight is one of those nights.
But I have a lot to look forward to tomorrow: it's a part-day at work so I leave early; I might get to have lunch with a bud; the weather is supposed to be spectacular; I'm planning to buy special pizza toppings and make a luscious pie; maybe I'll sing a little while my D. is away golfing with the neighbours. Ooh, sounds like a plan, better hit the rack (naval talk) and catch some zzz's so I'm rested enough to enjoy Friday!
