What's Missing Here...

Had a FANTASTIC day today. Woke up at 5 and dressed for my trail run. Out the door by 6:15, 7 mile run on Laurel Bluff trail. Drove to Panera where I toweled off and sipped a small coffee while reading the paper for an hour until I met my trainer. Worked out for an hour with him (I fear my arms will be jello tomorrow). Toweled off again and drove back to Panera. Met a friend for coffee and carbo-loaded with a bagel. Drove home, showered, returned two phone calls, petted the cats, ran some errands...

Um. I forgot to work today. 

Okay, that's not entirely true. I FINALLY have the title for my newest cat book and I updated my proposal and marketing overview and sent the final (whoo-hoo!) edits to my agent. Also caught up on e-mails. But real work work? Not so much feeling it today. 

Try again tomorrow.

Not many people have the good fortune--and the guts--to make a move like that. He's not going into this blind and I know he'll take advantage of every minute available to him.

It's funny, but seeing someone else taking time off to work on a book reminded me that--hey--isn't that what my life is supposed to be about?
