I'm a dumbass. I got a coupon from the big speed dating company for such-and-such date and thought, "Why not?" since things seem to have fizzled with all my potential primary possibilities lately. I thought it was for tonight, which would've been great since there's only Heroes at 9 and I think some of last week's tiredness was exercising too late at night anyhow. Except I read wrong and even though this is a week when, Hallelujah!, there's a House, I'm going to be speed dating instead. /me is a dumbass.

WINGMAN, what night were your plans for?

Then again, I'm not sure if by tmw I'll be fit for either speed dating or running. I punted last night's run bc apparently the coughing and congestion from yesterday morning wasn't just morning grogginess. By the time I got off the train, I was worried about getting dog sick, although he cancelled our dinner plans before I did, and decided to punt running for the night, even though my weekly mileage was low, bc while I believe in running when you're a little ache-y, apparently running when you're coughing isn't so good. I told you I'm bright.

And now I'm a little concerned bc I cleared out all the food in the house before I left for my weekend trip, so there's nothing in the house to eat, and I've finished almost all my books, so if I stay home from work tomorrow, I'll either starve or die of boredom. Guess I'd better be healthy enough to go to work then, hm? (I have to go in today bc there's stuff that needs to get finished up that only I can do.)

Speaking of sick people... ( dog and dad ) Anyhow, the most encouraging sign about my father's recovery is that he might be going to a function in NYC on Weds and this weekend, he's going to Washington for his fave lobbying group's annual meeting. Of course, what's really amusing is that doggie is also going to DC, on the exact same dates, for his new fave lobbying group, the MS society. heh.
