That was no fun at all

I had a miserable afternoon and not much sleep last night.
( possibly distressing details of symptoms )

This morning I'm feeling better, but of course tired, and glad I didn't get to the stage of making plans with anyone.

cattitude suggests that the problem is lack of exercise, so (while I am not ready to head out to the gym today), I'll do a few crunches here (in 3s or so, not 15s as I usually do) and maybe even bicep curls.

I expect to be basically home today, but will probably be screening calls even if I'm awake.

OK, now what? I thought this scene was going to be a hinge, but it's left Olivia no closer to a decision. It's a hinge for Mrs. Fish, and maybe for the story, but the only decision my protagonist has made in this section is to call her office and say she'll be in late.

Word count: this chapter, 1565 so far; today, 1132 and possibly counting; total, 63,208

feeling better

I've done a little exercise: five (yes, five) crunches and one set of 15 bicep curls (8 pound weight) each arm. Walked away for an hour or two, during which I ate a bagel with cream cheese and lox and played online, then did another five crunches, another set of 15 curls each arm, 5 back arches, and 5 more crunches. Just a little, easing back into things. In a little while, I'll make a miniature meatloaf (cattitude is out gaming, so it's dinner for one), and try to get to bed early. Or maybe stare at my work in progress a while longer, and see if Olivia can decide what she's doing/if I can decide what I/the story need her to do.
