I did a lot today. I woke up long before the sun. I showered and went to work. I wrote some stories, answered some emails, attended a long meeting. I welcomed a new coworker, laughed with friends and made decisions. I ate two meals at my desk, returned some phone calls and set an appointment. I understood my role in upcoming corporate happenings, expressed concern over future events and learned about a weekend requirement.
After work, I visited a friend, gave him a CD for the road and hugged him goodbye. I zipped into the drive-thru, braved afternoon traffic and made it home. I snapped a photo of two deer outside my apartment, posted it to Facebook and waited for people to "like" it.
I chopped some veggies, boiled some pasta and packed it all up for lunch tomorrow. I cleaned the dishes, texted a friend and watched Rachael Ray make a delicious meal in 30 minutes.
I sat down at my desk, opened the laptop and started typing. I sighed heavily, thought about the past and what, if any, power my words might have.
I've done a lot since 2am.
The one thing I didn't do today was forget.
