Things that make me happy
Dec. 4th, 2013 06:14 pmMy travel clock has a temperature gauge. So when I woke sweltering this morning, it was easy to diagnose -- it's me, not the room temperature! Yep, I forgot one of my daily pills since I got here....
Hotel staff are easily badgered. It took then 15 minutes to open the gym for me this morning, but I got in a lovely 24 minutes on the lone elliptical. Which is much appreciated after the shock of the 38 floors yesterday. Plus, no one else in the gym! When I looked in at the gym yesterday evening, it was completely full of sweating Asian men who did NOT look like they would be willing to share the gym with a foreign woman. Very intimidating.
The hotel got my morning eggs perfect in my to-go breakfast. I can go farther with morning protein. It looks bad when I start eyeing my students as good food sources...
I slept until my alarm went off this morning. Perhaps this means I'm adjusting?
Dinner conversation last night gave me a few weekend gentle adventure plans. There are several shopping centers in walking distance of my hotel, including grocery stores. I am very much looking forward to it. I love wandering grocery stores. Perhaps I can even shop for some exotic Christmas gifts. I will have plenty of checked suitcase space on the way back...
