Torture

We were doing a Cookie Swap at work today - I'm very very over being a vegan at any sort of potluck. I'm sure I could do a lot of good by bringing vegan cookies in for everyone, but the idea of a potluck is to share, not to bring stuff in for everyone else and not get anything. I did bring Candy-Cane Joe-Joe's, but didn't put them out since all the rest of the cookies were homemade. I'll bring them to another holiday party.

Work was almost eerily slow in the morning I played some Elgard on my phone, shopped around for hats online, and went to the gym late. I had a good workout, but in the middle of my cycling I suddenly started thinking about the unanesthetized surgeries inflicted on concentration camp victims. Shook myself free from that, did some muscle work. I ran into Hot Doctor Andy in the locker room - he hadn't heard about the Bar, and I thought I saw a different light in his eyes when he looked at me. Work picked up a little in the afternoon, but we got it all done.

I was going to stop at the store on the way home, but didn't want to fight traffic or crowds. I finally did go around 8, and it was *still* busy. Almost went to the gym again - I had an unusually large amount of energy. Played video games instead, but almost had more energy at 1:30 when I finally put it down than I did when I started. Took me a while to get to sleep.
