Life
Came back to the UK for <48 hours just because I needed a gym and a washing machine, which made me vastly less stressed! Then went to NYC for 3 nights, where I got to catch up with some friends and drank lots of iced tea. Made it back to the UK for the weekend. Was contemplating a little trip somewhere but I have so much to do I will just stay put for 9 days (!!) and work and work out.
Work
Meetings! Good things are happening.
Media
Watching The Good Wife, and Melissa and Joey season 3. Finished Present, and back to reading Elements of User On-Boarding. Read The Someday Jar, Maybe in Another Life, and If I Could Turn Back Time.
