Checking in.

Daylight Savings means it's full dark by six o'clock, which means the day's done around five-thirty. The novelty of it kicked my lizard brain into saying that going outside without any sunlight would be a bad idea, and I couldn't bring myself to make a decent counter-argument for it being worth it to leave, even the two blocks to the gym, so I gave into the hindbrain and stayed inside. Which meant not getting to a couple of errands I'd hoped to do before Tuesday. I'll hit up the gym tomorrow and get the other stuff done later this week, and see about adjusting to the truncated schedule over the next few days.

On the plus side, I scrubbed the entire bathroom and most of kitchen zone, cooked fennel for lunch, vacuumed, did all the laundry, got some groceries, got five meals of minestrone set aside, and found some stores in the local area that sell Vegemite. So not a completely wasted day - just the sort of thing that comes from not getting a fast enough start in the morning.
