Not a big day. Just a day off. Around halfway through the day I realized my phone was missing. I gave it a call to see if it was in the house, and I checked my car, but it was nowhere to be found. Which lead me to believe I left it at work last night. I carried it around in my pocket all night and then took it out and put it on the desk at the end of the night when I was putting other stuff back in my pockets. And then forgot to put my phone in my bag. Whoops. On the plus side I was still able to send text messages with my tablet so I texted one of the managers and asked if my phone happened to be there. And it was. So that got me out of the house today. It ended up being a pizza night and I went to get breadsticks at Papa John's and Little Caesars (the pizza was from Papa Murphy's) so I swung by the theater when I was out and got my phone. Hooray.

I exercised a bit today but not a lot because getting hot is still uncomfortable for my eye and whatever is going on with my forehead. But I gave it a try. I am doing a 30-day plank thing, slowly increasing to a five-minute plank by the end of the thirty days. I have no idea what day I'm on anymore thanks to the medical break, but I am up to a minute and a half. Not bad. Five minutes still sounds insane but so did a minute and a half when I first started.

I have yet to buy my first truck in Euro Truck Simulator 2. I am putting way too much thought into it. I have discovered all the different brand dealerships (but not all the dealerships) and I have started test driving each brand by taking short deliveries. I have a few more trucks to go before making my decision. So far I am leaning toward a Majestic truck, which is the knockoff Mercedes truck. It seems to have the best acceleration, which is nice because it sucks getting stuck on an on-ramp going 3mph trying to make it up to the main road. That happens with a lot of the trucks but not with the Majestic. Maybe by tomorrow I can finally pull the trigger and get my business off the ground, not just freelance stuff.

I am really tempted to go to bed now but I think I am going to read a little more out of Under The Dome before I do that. Maybe. We'll see if I still feel the same way when I'm laying in bed.
