Just One Thing (21 June 2017)

It's challenge time!

Comment with Just One Thing you've accomplished in the last 24 hours or so. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing that you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.

Feel free to share more than one thing if you're feeling particularly accomplished!

Extra credit: find someone in the comments and give them props for what they achieved!

Nothing is too big, too small, too strange or too cryptic. And in case you'd rather do this in private, anonymous comments are screened. I will only unscreen if you ask me to.

Go!

Went to yoga even though I really didn't want to.

Wrote something useful that I'm actually proud of.

Realized I needed to call my mom about a Hard Thing in the extended family, and called her. Kept it together, while expressing emotion, during the phone call. Made myself rest after.

Met up with someone I haven't seen for years for a very pleasant lunch sitting outside a cafe.

Rather a lot of work.

I did a talk with someone else. It did not crash and burn, and the audience seemed engaged.

Prepared for my talk. Gave it. I identified things I wanted to change, but it did go well.

Did my best to answer questions from someone who was not asking questions about the topic we had been speaking on. (Some of them were in a related area, but some of it was just WTF.)

Warned my companion that I was up for dinner with most, but not all, attendees of the conference.

Employed my social safeword and then executed a flawless operation to exfiltrate the cute engineer from the lounge without going past Tedious Question Lady. Rescue accomplished! Dinner accomplished!

Got back to the hostel. Discovered that if we are very very careful, we can nap together on a twin size bunk bed.

Coped with the heat.
