I decided not to do this half heartedly. My initial instint gave way to a liitle more thought. I also benefited greatly by my PCP mates - Alex, Ren, Abby, and Brian. I began to think of it in more general terms and with more scale and depth. I decided to have an indulgent day. I barely worked at all. I had a great breakfast, took Paul to school, came home and worked a little, then worked out. I had a great workout and made it through the planks, I was twitching and moving...but I made it.

Now - Indulge. I started at a coffee shop Sisters McMullen and with a copy of WIRED and an article I had been wanting to read for months about someone who tries to vanish. I love a good cup of coffee and an excellent cookie. It was a trifecta of pleasure. I read the entire article, teh phone never rang - an excellent hour in a wonderful day.

But wait - there is more. I then wen tot the fancy grocery store to get lunch. What fun to walk the perimeter of the store and carefuuly select an excellent dinner. An apricot here, an heirloom tomato, a beautful steak, an apple pie, some powerful pumpernickel bread, 6 cashews covered in yogurt or chocolate, and some beautiful olives. REady set go!

I got home and began to prepare. I had so much fun. A funny thing happened when I was gettign the almonds. Istarted to act like a glutton...like i was sneaking from myself, a suble shift from celebratory to gluttony. Happily I shifted back quickly. But it was odd to watch. The meal was delicious. I made to much and I just saved it for dinner. When I looked a the food I realized that except for the pie and bread it was all food. Fantastic! I feel better about day 92.

Go team Go!
