Siliceous and Delicious

Spent the morning unboxing my possessions and moving back into my office, now sporting a sexy new carpet and fetching off-white walls. And a whitewashed ceiling now lacking chipping paint and mold. After having essentially taken Friday and Monday off, combined with an intensive weekend, I found myself feeling quite disconnected from work and tempted to wile the time away without getting back into it.

Fortunately, there’s a memory left of the great momentum I was able to build up over the Great Leap Forward last week. I’m a little skeptical of returning to my previous model of one-project-a-day, now that I’ve seen how much I can get done if I really let myself delve deeply into a project for a three-day push.

Alas, there was no work to get done today—just as I had finished unpacking, taking care of emails, and had a bite to eat, my visiting friend showed up and that was the end of the working day for me.
