Unfortunately, my successful pomodoro got sent to Mixpanel as an interrupted one. Quickly added a second margin of error for that. Should do the trick, I think.

Time to run to work.

I had a great day!

....

Until I walked home from work. And then a thing happened. And I'm fine but... I'll talk about it tomorrow. Basically, I did a thing that felt right in the moment, that was basically right... but I regret doing it, and I feel like I shouldn't regret doing it but I do.

I'll write about it tomorrow. I'll give specifics.

Let's do my review checklist.

There was no post a year ago today.

I was sick a month ago today. I backlogged the day. I remember being afraid during this time that my sleep would destabilize but it didn't. I did pretty good being sick. I managed not to chow down on a bunch of sugar.

Good on past me.

Sat Jun 02 02:46:17 UTC 2018

Yesterday was my first day since my sugar pact that I ate well beyond 20g of sugar. I didn't enjoy eating the sugar, and I didn't feel great after eating it. I'm hoping this helps me maintain my habit going forward. I only took the cupcake as it was gotten specially for me (vegan), and I didn't finish it.

I'm just going to not eat it next time. Take it home to my wife.

Yesterday I did a solid job doing personal project pomodoros. Today... not so much, but I'm confident I will build the habit. Today just had a thing happen (that I'll talk about tomorrow).

Sat Jun 02 02:49:00 UTC 2018

I've gotten 12 pomodoros in today. All work ones, technically, as planning and end of day reviews are work pomodoros on work days.

Which is exactly my goal for work pomodoros. Or rather, that's my high-end goal.

I would've probably gotten in my two personal pomodoros as well if not for thing that happened. I'm avoiding thinking about it right now because I'm just being hard on myself and need time to process. I talked about what happened with my wife, and it isn't that big of a deal, but I should log it here, so I will tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

Today overall was still great. I even ran to work in under 18 minutes. That's 2.3 miles (notably a bunch of it downhill). That's faster than 8 minutes per mile. Woo!

I'll try to remember to time my run from now on, and we'll see how fast the uphill run back is on Monday.

I also did some gym stuff before climbing. I'll play with exercises for a bit before developing a routine. Well, I'll play, research, play some more, and then iterate into a routine. Still, exciting progress there.

Let's organize my email actions until this pomodoro ends.
