I was quite hungry this morning so I resolved to get some more substantial breakfast over my usual wee cup of Greek yogurt. I went just up the block to 49th Parallel & Lucky’s Doughnuts. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever been in a coffee shop this busy. The line was huge (but swift) most of the time. I had gone with the specific intent of having one of their pistachio croissants but even at… 6:50am those were already sold out. So I settled for a pistachio doughnut which was amazing and a breakfast sandwich which was also very above par.

I worked from that coffee shop all morning until I had to head back home for the daily workout.

I had lunch at the previously mentioned The Basil Box which is also becoming a staple destination of mine here in the neighbourhood.

Talked to my parents on the phone for a while. They’re at our ranch in Wyoming and had a very exciting day full of kayaking and moose encounters. Then I had what I believe was my first ever actual video chat with Tricia. That is to say my first video chat ever, not just the first with Tricia. I don’t know why we don’t do that more often! Anyway we talked forever and then I had to hustle off to Krav Maga. …where I actually sustained a fair number of injuries on this particular evening. Then it was home and to sleep.
