Skipping Caviar

Tuesday, 10 March 2009

There was some funny story I was going to post about yesterday, but I have no idea what it was, so never mind... perhaps it'll come back to me later. 

The day at work was good, but you know those days that just don't quite start? It was one of those. I spent the first hour staring at my screen, before I realised I hadn't done anything. This is incredibly unlike me; my favourite quote from my boss when I came back from a week off: 

"Thank God you're back! Three people have been doing half your job!" 

Praise indeed. And probably a bit of exaggeration on her part. Needless to say, my days are normally jam-packed with productivity, but not yesterday. I think it may have been a day-after-the-day-after-the-night-before hangover. Which, as my colleague Polly commented, are the worst kind. 

After work there was a networking event on that I was going to go to - mainly for the free wine and caviar - but by the time the end of the day came, all I wanted was something ultimately tamer: bed and hot chocolate. So home I went, to watch Green Wing with the husband before falling asleep. 

Today is feeling more productive already; I've tidied the house (I prefer tidying to cleaning), written a business article, caught up with friends via email and completed Work Task 1. Which is, I believe, the only work task for the day. I work two days a week from home, and the other three from the office, which gives me time to recuperate from the journey. 

Anyway... will post more interestingly later, when I think of something inspired to say. Until then, have a good day! :)
