Ready for Saturday [Friday 27]

Got up reasonably well-rested this morning, so was in a good mood to write the two pieces of fiction writing that I did. Skipped showering that I'd delayed from last night because I didn't feel like it. Had a peach before leaving for work along with my vitamins, and I'm not exaggerating too much when I say that one piece of peach moderate my mood considerably and limited the morning grumps I've been having this week. Well... That and the good night's sleep.

Can't complain too much about morning commute, I caught up with my roommate at Sullivan even though he had left home ten minutes and two buses earlier than I had. Work was ... Just ok, lots of rework so I didn't really feel like doing it but did it anyway, but not gonna complain too much. I was too distracted by avoiding it so I missed out on writing at job. Rest of the folks went for an hour and a half long lunch, I stayed around reading and talking to the remaining coworkers.

I had a online meeting with my manager at 2 -- he worked remotely today, and we had a good conversation about various projects and what I want to do. I was actually pretty tired by that point. Just as I was talking to him PA messaged me, and we got talking. After my meeting with the manager, I multitasked between finishing the rest of the tasks, and having a conversation with drunk PA. It was a good talk, and I'm looking forward to the commitments that have been made. I'm really happy she's reconsidering her geographic positioning. We talked about our mutual friend SS who we agreed is one of the most fun persons to be around (there was a mention in a post sometime last week I think), and one of the more successful ones too. When it rains. Ah well. I had to end the conversation, because work was ending.

After spending an hour and a half completing my word count (ISH) for the day and reading up on certain companies with crazy CEOs and cultlike following, I had the folks come over, our usual gang. I texted our new friend if they wanted to come, but got no response, so we just spent a low-key time doing puzzles and zenga and catching flies so to speak. I had almond milk. We were all very tired, SSh (as usual) was ready to go home to see her cousins, and P had his friend's housewarming party. The remaining three of us had to go to bed early to prepare for mt Washington hike tomorrow. So we abandoned SSh right there (her friend was stuck in the traffic for hours), and left for prabhus place. We had already made an order at Domino's (my idea, I love Domino's and think their 8-dollar 3-topping large pizza is an incredible deal, Pra likes it too, so we decided to split it into 2 sides of 3 veggies), so we picked it on our way back to their house. The entire trip including getting the pizza took 22 minutes.

After we got in, we ate the pizza and started making buckwheat pancakes and other snacks for tomorrow. Pra is just done making the achaar for it. I also tried their new bidet and I give it 9.5/10. It's got a dryer, different water pressures, angles, etcetera, but it's likely ideal for private homes rather than shared bathrooms because I'd never want to leave the commode at that point. It's also a got a seat-warming feature!

I got ready for bed, and did my pushups (gonna do it now actually), and am writing this just as Pra is clearing out for the day. Gonna watch some TV as I go to bed, need my zzzs and be well rested for the hike! Exciting times.
