Oh, I wish I could do that. Few of my lunch time meetings are actually work related, so I can't balance out my work day like that. Most of them, instead, relate to volunteer/civic things I'm involved with.

I'll admit that I further complicate my schedule because, minus yoga one day a week, I try to go straight home after work, at least during the winter. I have some night vision issues and a 25-milie commute, so I like to get home before dark. Come March, it gets easier to schedule things because of Daylight Savings Time, but during the winter, I find myself having to cram a lot into my work day. Ironically, work itself is really slow right now; it's my lunch hour that's nuts.

But Crankin offered a dose of perspective. Plus, I do like to be busy most of the time. I just hate when things have to get rescheduled over and over again.
