I'm on vacation. It made more sense to take the whole week off than to go to work today, run myself ragged working out and packing afterwards, and then get on a plane tomorrow, so my vacation started Friday afternoon from my viewpoint: that's when I handed in my timesheet for last week, left a note explaining exactly where I'd gotten to on the pages I'm proofreading, and left the office.
This morning, I had a good workout, including adding something sort of new to my routine (it's a variation on two things I have done). Then, down to Chinatown for lunch, a bit of a walk, and home with an assortment of useful things, including chocolate, citrus, and coffee. Economy Candy once again has the Cote d'Or "Noir de noir" bars I like (confusingly, the company distributes two different bars under that name, with visibly different shape, different artwork on the labels, and different tastes). The citrus is Peruvian satsumas, 8 for $2 on Canal Street. I prefer clementines, which are sweeter and have a slightly different flavor. So, apparently, does

It took him half a second to perk up when I started peeling one, and 8 seconds to start walking over, but while he accepted a few nibbles, he wasn't eagerly trying to get more, as he will with in-season clementines. (Given that his doctor would rather he not have many sweets, this is probably for the best.)
When I did my ritual weekly check of what's on my PDA calendar today, I realized that I'd misremembered the time of my flight; had I somehow not checked, I'd have been up and out unnecessarily early tomorrow, and spent more time being bored at the airport. But I'd probably have caught it when I printed out a copy of the flight itinerary to take with me.
I'll be more-or-less reachable while on vacation; that is, I'll be checking email moderately regularly. I may or may not be on LJ; I won't be on IM.
