The pros and cons of Thursday

It’s 10:23 a.m., but this has already been an interesting day. Let me tell you about it:

Con: I woke up with a food hangover. Yes, there is such a thing.
Pro: It was because Kim and I had an unbelievable meal last night, spanning almost four hours (more on that later).

Con: Because of the food hangover, I slept in.
Pro: I found coffee. Granted, it was at Starbucks, where they seem to brew it fairly regularly, but I’m not worried about such details.

Con: In trying to open the door to my office, I broke the key. In the lock. Our locks are stupid like that.
More con: The maintenance worker made it worse by jamming a screwdriver in the lock.
Pro: The jeweler across the hall has experience…um, breaking in to things?…and was able to open the door with a coat hanger. With a coat hanger.

Con: Because of the position of the key, I still have to foot a bill from the locksmith.
Pro: I work for myself, and have ruled that under such circumstances, a mid-morning beer is acceptable. (I’m not saying I’ve opened one, but it’s an option.)

Con: It’s now 10:29 a.m. I still have several hours before the Grizzlies game tweetup.
Pro: I have approximately two hours less until the pre-game festivities at Milano. That is, if Kendall will let me in after calling the restaurant out on TasteFresno and MindHub.
