Day of Diet Depletion

As much as I love my job, I love the feeling in the air of a Friday. I still work a lot, but I like how relaxed it feels.

Today I started with nearly 2 hours of thinking and writing with just a pen and notepad. Also wrote a thank you letter to a mentor and will put it in the mail today.

PS -  FINALLY cancelled my cable. 

Haven't turned my TV on in months. The only thing I will miss is Saturday morning English Premier League games, but www.tsn.ca shows all the highlights on video on Monday...so I don't miss any great goals. Everything I watch is now on my computer. Now to sell the TV?
