lots of people out to make-believe they're living

Today was much more productive than yesterday, if you count lunch with Katie as productive. I woke up in a rather leisurely mood, made some coffee and eggs, and spent a couple of hours at my desk doing personal work stuff, which felt good. Then I took a quick shower, drove to Denver, and picked up Katie. We were going to go to Avanti, but it was super crowded; then we walked to Postino, where the wait was 30-45mins. Keep in mind that this was at 1:15pm, so clearly Denver's brunch scene is beginning to rival San Francisco's.

So we walked up to Old Major, which told us a twenty-minute wait - but they ended up seating us after like five minutes, which was perfect. They're known for their pork products since they do their own butchering, so I got the eggs benedict without the muffin, and the ham and egg and hollandaise was absolutely perfect (as were the breakfast potatoes, but I rarely meet a breakfast potato that I don't like). Katie and I had much to discuss, so we closed the place down, then went down the street to a coffee shop, which we also shut down. So, after discussing many and varied topics, I dropped her off around 4:30 so that I could head back to Boulder.

It snowed all the way back to Boulder, so I'll be interested to see what tomorrow looks like. I also talked to my parents and then ate some leftover chili (yum), and then I debated being productive...but instead I binge watched four episodes of Top Chef. I'm still not caught up, but I'm getting there.

And yes, today was still more productive than yesterday, so #noregrets. But tomorrow needs to be even more productive than that, so it's time for bed - goodnight!
