Brief (but Important) Updates

• 10 days (and counting) without coffee
• 7 days (and counting) since surgery
• bought myself a present for surviving both of these milestones: 

Boston Sunset on a Fall Day

After a particularly hectic Monday, I returned to to MBTA station in  mediocre mood....until I looked up at the sky and saw a gorgeous sunset in the works. Since my apartment (and the T) are roughly only a five minutes drive, I was inspired to race the clock and go take some pictures of the sunset. What follows are my feeble attempts at photography that I hope to improve over time! enjoy :)

This is my favorite...I wish it had come out clearer

D-Day

For those of you following my coffee journey, Sunday marked D-Day: decaf day.

So far, the torture caused by this change has been only mild to moderately uncomfortable. Sunday I just felt very tired and out of sorts. Today, I have a moderate migraine (migraine = in pain, but trying to still function). Contemplating heading out early to go home and lay down...we'll see.

PS - decided to buy cookies at Starbucks for an afternoon sugar push. One was a cat an the other an owl. I took the photo *after* eating the first cookie:
