Guilty pleasures

Since tomorrow is a national holiday, I decided to take today off from work to give myself an extra long weekend. Ex picked up the kids after work this morning and once they were gone, I went back to bed for a few more hours.

I spent the day watching some of the 3rd season of ALIAS, while trying to get some things done today.

The only thing that I needed to do today was a trip to the post office to check my mailbox. On the way back I drove the route that I walked last Wednesday and it turned out to be just under five miles.

When I got back, I decided to take a swim in the pool here at the apartment. It was too crowded, so I didn't stay long. Even if there were fewer people there, I would only have stayed just long enough to take a dip and cool off.

While I admit it was nice to not have the kids to watch out for poolside, it was also quite boring. Knowing how much crap I need to do inside the apartment, I really couldn't justify staying too long at the pool, no matter how nice and refreshing the water was.

I'll be heading down to the parents' house sometime tomorrow afternoon, for I believe, a steak & lobster cookout. Should be fun.
