Since I felt that I was still getting over having overdone things on Monday, I took it a bit easy at the gym, which meant I was done there sooner than usual.
After exercising, I walked down to the Pret a Manger on 42nd Street across from the main library. The sandwiches are okay, but the reason I go there is that I can count on them for an actual cup of hot black tea. I drank tea and ate turkey on a baguette, then went to the library. A couple of hours in the rather attractive reading room left me with no useful results beyond a couple of scribbled journal names to hunt for later. However, on the subway platform heading home, I got an idea, which proved fruitful once I was back in front of my machine and I could google. Results have been emailed to the client, who I hope will be satisfied. (As far as I can tell, the specific data they want either were never collected, or were never published in any useful/findable format.)
I cashed yesterday's unemployment check this morning, and today's mail contains another--the first was for the week I thought I might not be getting paid for, and this is the one for last week. (I'd been vaguely confused, thinking yesterday's check was for last week, and wondering why they hadn't taken out for the one day I reported doing freelance work. Now it all makes sense--and I have a bit more money.)
Cardio, 21 minutes (the heartrate monitor was being flaky)
Vertical chest press, 65 pounds, 2 sets of 12
Calf machine, 75 pounds, 13, 10; 70 pounds, 10
Balance lunge not-really-fly [I really should ask Eric what to call this], 35 pounds, 15 with each leg forward
Leg press, 280 pounds, 2 sets of 12
Crunches, 2 sets of 30
Back arches, 2 sets of 17
Yoga tree, 4 sets of {3 on each leg]
Lateral raise on balance dome, 5 pounds each hand, 2 sets of 15
Stretches
Despite having taken it easy at the gym, I discarded two different tentative "I could run this errand" ideas in favor of heading straight home to my tea kettle after the library, because I realized I was standing on the sidewalk in front of the library, being fuzz-brained.
